This is nothing new in Priscilla land 
. I think this happened in both Sydney and Melbourne, but the show must go on!

Simon Phillips summed up the show perfectly in an interview with aussietheatre.com:
"When I was first asked to do this show, I did think that it seemed to me to be the ideal film to turn into a musical. It was actually a film that everyone thought was a musical in the first place, even though it wasn't, and also one that is destined to make the idea of a jukebox musical actually feel that it was a deliberate art form rather than some cynical accumulation of numbers that you could throw together and give everyone a good time, on the grounds that the world of drag and everything that it does has as its very heart the appropriation of great songs of any old diva from anywhere, and the re-rendering of it in the most fantastic costumes you can imagine."
Break a leg tonight ladies and "ladies" :)

Sadly, no!
Due to being both such a busy person at work and a person in demand at play, the earliest i will be paying a visit to the palace is on Friday.
I am, however, meeting some of the company after the show tonight.

Matt - it helps that I've seen it many times (if my memory serves me correctly, I've saw it three times in its original Sydney run, twice i think in Melbourne and once again on its return engagement in Sydney)

Not so much dedication as connections. I have a link to the show through which I got comps to all the Australian mainland productions :)
It is definitely a laugh! A highly contagious camp laugh!
