The musical, touring the UK from this September has now revealed more dates, taking it into 2020.
Priscilla, Queen of the Desert the Musical will now tour until next spring, the show’s producers, Mark Goucher and Jason Donovan have revealed.
The show, which was announced last year, will star Strictly Come Dancing winner Joe McFadden and is Donovan’s first time as a producer, having performed in the cast of the original West End production and two subsequent UK tours.
The musical expects to have more glitter than before, featuring an array of stunning costumes, fabulous feathers and a non-stop parade of dance-floor classics including It’s Raining Men, I Will Survive, I Love The Nightlife, Finally and many more.
Based on the Oscar-winning film, the production is the hilarious adventure of three friends who hop aboard a battered old bus bound for Alice Springs to put on the show of a lifetime. Their epic journey is a heart-warming story of self-discovery, sassiness and acceptance.
