Multi-award winning BLOC Productions return to The BristolHippodrome with the feel-good spectacle Priscilla, Queen of the Desert from 7-11 September 2027, following last year’s epic production of We Will Rock You. Shows are at 7.30pm each evening and additional matinee performances on Wednesday and Saturday afternoon from 2.30pm.
Based on the iconic 1994 Australian film, the musical follows two drag queens and a transgender woman as they travel across the Australian Outback aboard a lavender bus named Priscilla! Along the way, they discover friendship, acceptance and the importance of being unapologetically yourself, all wrapped up in a heartwarming story packed with comedy, spectacular costumes and an iconic soundtrack.
Audiences will boogie all night to 80s and 90s disco and pop anthems including It’s Raining Men, I Will Survive, Go West, Girls Just Want to Have Fun, Hot Stuff, Venus, I Say a Little Prayer, What’s Love Got to Do With It and Finally.
With fabulous characters and dazzling choreography, Priscilla Queen of the Desert promises to be an unforgettable celebration of love, laughter and self-expression.
