Priscilla, Queen of the Desert AND the Costume

I had the very good fortune this week to see the musical Priscilla Queen of the Desert.


The entire play is a costume spectacular with over 500 costumes, 150 pairs of shoes, 200 hats and 60 wigs!


The main three characters are always in drag and one was so convincing I actually thought it was a woman playing a man playing a drag queen ( if that makes sense ).



The lobby of Segerstrom Center for the Arts was full of fun show facts, props and merchandise.


But make no mistake,


this show was 100% about the costumes,

Gillian Austin, the wardrobe mistress for the show.


the music;


 and both were completely over the top!!


That's me in the green glasses :)

 So if Priscilla Queen of the Desert comes to your town I strongly suggest you hop on that party bus and go have a very good time.
