Priscilla Queen of the Desert Tickets

Priscilla Queen of the Desert Information:

Priscilla: Queen of the Desert - The Musical is a stage musical with a book written by Australian film director/writer Stephan Elliott and Allan Scott, using well-known pop songs as the score. The musical is a stage adaptation of Elliott's 1994 motion picture The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.

The musical is scheduled to open on Broadway on March 20, 2011 at the Palace Theatre with previews beginning February 28, 2011. Priscilla, however, made its North American debut at the Princess of Wales Theatre in Toronto for a limited 12-week pre-Broadway trial run; beginning performances on October 12, 2010.

Although the creative team remains the same, this production of Priscilla is slightly different in comparison to those previous as the script has been re-written to focus the show earlier and more often on the relationship between Tick and his son, Benjamin. In addition, several of the songs used in previous productions have been replaced, due to concerns that North American audiences would be unfamiliar with some of the music: most notably, songs by Kylie Minogue have been substituted with songs by Madonna.
