Audience Recommendation:
Recommended for ages 13 and up. This production contains mature themes and strong language.
The story of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert the Musical champions concepts of judgment-free identity, empathy, inclusivity, the importance of belonging and hope. As is the case with most meaningful theatre, the road to this better understanding of others’ perspectives is paved with conflict. In this show, those problematic themes include strong language, theatrical violence, sexual innuendo and homophobic and transphobic slurs. Our hope is that these conflicts lead to worthwhile discussions focused on the musical’s inspirational themes and encourage us to apply the idea we all are worthy of belonging, unique and valuable.
