I have a bizarre relationship with West End Musicals, I grew up with them but now feel that they have become business obsessed, tacky, condescending and shallow. HOWEVER.....
Priscilla Queen of the Desert the Musical (title's a bit long) is absolutely fantastically camp, colourful fun. The songs are well known, the costumes are amazing, the humour is obvious and the insults are bitchy:
"You know, there are two things I don't like about you, Felicia... your face. So how 'bout shutting both of them?"
"Fred: Come and fuck me. Come on. Fuck me.
[Bernadette knees Frank in the groin]
Bernadette: There, now you're fucked!"
"Now listen here, you mullet. Why don't you just light your tampon, and blow your box apart? Because it's the only bang you're ever gonna get, sweetheart!"
"Is it true when you were born the doctor turned around and slapped your mother?"
"What did she used do for kicks? Put a bucket on your head and swing off the handle?"
BASICALLY ITS SO MUCH FUN!
