Celebrating 30 fabulous years since the iconic film first captured hearts, this dazzling new UK and Ireland tour promises bigger laughs, bolder costumes and more sparkle than ever before.

Based on the Oscar-winning film, The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, the musical follows three friends on a hilarious and heartfelt journey across the Australian Outback as they travel aboard a battered bus, named Priscilla, to stage the performance of a lifetime. Along the way, they discover friendship, acceptance and the courage to be unapologetically themselves in a joyous celebration of love, identity and belonging.

Clifton’s dynamic performance style and dance expertise bring an electrifying energy to the production, blending comedy, vulnerability and show-stopping choreography.

Directed by Olivier Award-nominee Ian Talbot OBE, with exhilarating choreography by Olivier Award-winner Matt Cole, this anniversary production raises the glamour stakes with spectacular new costumes by BAFTA-winning designer Vicky Gill, best known for her dazzling creations on Strictly Come Dancing. Expect extraordinary headdresses, outrageous sequins and jaw-dropping couture moments that transform the stage into a riot of colour and sparkle.
