faaaabulous!, half naked men in hotpants, Jason Donovan, mirror balls, Pink bus, Priscilla Queen of the Desert: The Musical, shiney, shoes
Outside the Palace Theatre....shooooooooeeees!
A trip to London should always include a jaunt down to the West End for a spot of theee-Aye-tar, daahling! So M and I headed into the throngs for a spot of Priscilla Queen of the Desert: The Musical. Based on the film of the same name, it starred Jason Donovan in the role of Tick. He was fantastic. The man can do an excellent camp man, sing, dance and all in high heels. And he even threw in a very funny joke about fancying Scott in Neighbours.
Platform shoes. Magnificent, completely over the top costumes. Flying divas with swan wings. Half naked men in hotpants. Outrageous wigs. More feather boas than you could shake a stick at. Show tunes. Uncouth jokes. Drag queens. A large disco pink bus.
Humungeous mirror Balls.
Shiney!
What more could a girl ask for?
*delighted sigh*

@ Dais > and you could take your drink in with you!
Oh wow, sounds totally awesome!
@ Roxxy > Awesome *and* Fabulous!
Damn.
@ Sass > In sparkly lipstick!
Bananas in pyjamas?
@ Kyk > only if you like to sleep in 6 inch heels and full slap!
I suggest Kyk takes the fifth on this …
@ Sassylady > He’s fekkin’ HOT in heels!
Sounds awesome!
@ Jents > All wrapped in pink and electric blue feathers.
I like the fact that the original Priscilla film stars Agent Smith from the Matrix, the amnesiac in Memento, and General Zod from Superman II.
@ RenalFAILure > The irony has a certain deliciousness to it, it does.
OOOOH! Now I want to go. Some of the best times of my misspent youth were spent at drag shows. This should be right up my alley.
@ Silverstar > a friend says I *am* a drag queen trapped in a woman’s body. I take it as a compliment.
two friends and i (ladies by plumbing) went to a halloween ball – AIDS resource center fundraiser. our goal? out-drag the drag queens. we did. future blog post highly likely if i can ever find the pictures. we loves drag queens! yaaaaaaaay!
Dais, you know this, but you rock my world! YAY for drag queens. I think I’m the only girl in CT who was invited on the catwalk at the tranny fashion show during pride one year. I haven’t done that in ages. *muses*…now, there’s an idea.
I can get you comp tickets for MINCE if you like …?
the only thing missing was Kyk by your side
@ NurseM > *nods in agreement*
Reunification with your boy?
@ Booooosch > Counting the sleeps, boooosch, counting the sleeps!
you are having a wonderful time, aren’t you?
i’d love to see that. especially, as someone said,
you could take your drinks inside with you.
@ Sera > they had baby bottles of pink champers with straws. *happy sigh*

@ Twin > Mirror balls and glitter and sequins – sparkley
I have a mirror ball in my conservatory
@ Nurse M > is that a result of having a DJ son, or the other way around?
You had me at mirror balls!
@ Cluckhoff > I’m so with you…many of the world problems can be solved with a mirror ball a glass of champers!
What more could a girl ask for – a cock, in a frock, on a rock (in monster shoes as well naturally)! Love it.
