Priscilla Queen of the Desert Hits the Road

Priscilla Queen of the Desert is embarking on a major UK, Ireland and international tour, playing at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre Mon 4-Sat 9 May 2026.

From the producers of Hairspray the Musical, The Full Monty and Shrek the Musical and based on the 1995 Oscar-winning film, the production will be directed by Olivier-nominated Ian Talbot and choreographed by Oliver award-winner Matt Cole.

With iconic disco anthems such as It’s Raining Men, I Will Survive and Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, the sassy and joyous Broadway and West End hit musical follows the hilarious and heart-warming journey as three friends travel across Australia in a dilapidated bus nicknamed Priscilla to put on the show of a lifetime.

Featuring a hit parade of dance floor classics as well as garnering international acclaim, at its core, Priscilla Queen of the Desert’s enduring appeal lies in its heartfelt exploration and celebration of identity, diversity and the journey toward self-acceptance. Challenging societal norms, and the importance of embracing one’s true self, the characters confront prejudice and adversity, they also discover the strength found in unity, friendship and the beauty of authentic expression.

Packed full of dazzling dance routines, a sparkling array of spectacular costumes and an iconic soundtrack of 80s and 90s disco anthems, Priscilla Queen of the Desert is an exuberant celebration of acceptance and belonging, bursting at the seams with humour, heart and spectacle.

Casting will be announced in due course. Priscilla Queen of the Desert UK & Ireland Tour is produced by Mark Goucher and Matthew Gale (Hairspray The Musical, The Full Monty and Shrek The Musical).
