About the Album: Over a decade ago a battered old bus affectionately christened Priscilla; Queen of the Desert drove out of Sydney to become the star of one of the most internationally successful Australian movies of all time.
Priscilla is now transformed into a $6-million fully staged musical with over 500 costumes, a company of 129 and 27 fabulous disco hits, Priscilla Queen of the Desert, The Musical. The stage musical has just finished a successful Sydney season at the Lyric Theatre, since its opening on October 7 2006, 500,000 people have attended the spectacular show. Now, Priscilla is opening in Melbourne on October 6 to begin what will certainly be another successful season. To celebrate the opening and to answer the publics demand for a live recorded album, Universal and Priscilla have joined forces to record the Australian Cast in all their fabulous glory. The album replaces the very successful GOLD selling Priscilla Queen of the Desert - Music Inspired by the Musical album. Not only will this new album be snapped up by people who are soon to see the musical - but also by the half a million fans who have already seen the musical and demanded this cd.
