THE ADVENTURES OF PRISCILLA, QUEEN OF THE DESERT (1994) w/ ’90s drag pre-show
June 12 : 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
“A queer cult classic – and possibly more relevant than ever!” – Trill
That’s just what this country needs: a cock in a frock on a rock! Get all dolled up for this beloved summer dragstravaganza from Down Under! Stephan Elliott’s beloved Queer Aussie Cult Classic is as moving as it is entertaining – a fierce, fashionable, fun, and unforgettable movie going experience. Three drag performers head out from their comfortable bubble in Sydney in a bright purple bus for a road trip to a drag residency in the remote Australian desert – confronting bigots, wowing the small town folks, and lip-syncing opera in a huge high-heeled shoe. With a magnificent cast, an incredibly witty and touching script, and some of the best costuming you have ever seen (and the much-deserved Oscar winner for the year), you need to speed down to Arkadin in your purple bus for one of the best movies of the ’90s!
Come out early for a ’90s drag pre-show, starting at 6 pm!
