Priscilla Queen of the Desert

Earlier this year I visited a performance of Pricilla Queen of the Desert at the Sunderland Empire. The show was a pure spectacle with brilliant performances from the cast. I loved every minute of it and recommended to many friends and family. the main thing that drew my attention in the show was the flamboyant and technical costumes, and after the show I was very interested in finding more about the designer and their construction. I have included below a selection of the creative team involved in the production of the show. I have also added some videos displaying the show and its costumes.
