One of my fave movies of all time is gonna make it's way to Broadway, and this one actually makes sense to be on the stage!! The Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert is an Australian film released in 1994 about three drag queens who travel across the Australian outback in a bus called Priscilla starring Hugo Weaving (The Matrix trilogy, Lord of the Rings trilogy) Guy Pearce (L.A. Confidential, The Time Machine, Memento) and Terrance Stamp (HELLO!! ZOD FROM SUPERMAN II). The movie is soooo fun and sooooo touching and sooooo a musty. The stage musical has been running in different versions since 2006 and will open it's North American run in Toronto in fall 2010 before coming to Broadway in early 2011. The score includes dance-floor classics like "I Will Survive", "Don't Leave Me This Way", "Finally", "Shake Your Groove Thing" and "I Love the Nightlife". I am so excited about this production. The costumes for the film won an academy award and I bet the wardrobe for the show will be equally amazy. There haven't been this many drag queens on Broadway since....well.....last night when they all were going home from Hell's Kitchen. WOOOHOOOO! [source]
