Based on the Oscar-winning film of the same name and powered by a disco beat, Priscilla… the musical is the hilarious adventure of three friends – two drag queens and a transsexual woman – who hop aboard a battered old bus named Priscilla bound for Alice Springs in the middle of Australia to put on the show of a lifetime. With a dazzling array of outrageous costumes and a hit parade of dance floor favorites, their epic journey is a heart-warming story of self-discovery, sassiness and acceptance.

At the dawn of a new century, everything is changing and anything is possible. Set in the volatile melting pot of turn-of-the-century New York, three distinctly American tales are woven together – a stifled upper-class wife, a determined Jewish immigrant and a daring young Harlem musician – united by their courage, compassion and belief in the promise of the future. Together, they confront history’s timeless contradictions of wealth and poverty, freedom and prejudice, hope and despair and what it means to live in America.
