Growing up the son of a minister is never easy, especially when you turn out to be gay. Adam Bailey tackles this aspect of his youth in the follow up to his 2014 Best of Fringe win in Toronto. Throughout the evening Adam shares several true and frank stories about the deeply internal conflicts that exist between sexuality and religious faith. The show promises not to pull punches or be sentimental, instead Adam uses a postmodern whimsy to take us from bible studies in banquet halls to bathhouse dates to his dalliances with pharmaceuticals in a performance that "flies by like a church service on speed" (CBC News Manitoba).

Priscilla Queen of the Desert has had massive success all over the world since it opened in Sydney, Australia in 2006 - no more so than in this country where the show enjoyed a two-year run in London and is currently on its second UK tour. From place to place and on each outing, there always seems to be something slightly different (a change to a set piece or a new song) so the show is constantly in development, keeping it fresh. Just like the 1994 film, the musical production is feel-good throughout but does address serious issues along the way. Ultimately though, Priscilla has great morals filtering through a superbly written book by Stephan Elliott and Allan Scott.
David Ian Productions and the Ambassador Theatre Group have announced the full cast for the UK tour of the international smash hit musical PRISCILLA QUEEN OF THE DESERT opening on Thursday 20 August 2015 at the Manchester Opera House. www.priscillathemusical.com.
