London’s production of Priscilla Queen of the Desert has announced its full cast. Already on board when the musical was launched in London were Jason Donovan, Oliver Thornton and Clive Carter, with Tony Sheldon as Bernadette, the role he originated in the first production of Priscilla in 2006. They will now be joined by Kate Gillespie, Emma Lindars and 2002 Pop Idol finalist Zoe Birkett will feature as the three Divas to whose voices the male principals will lip-synch.
Also joining the cast are Wezley Sebastian as Miss Understanding, Danielle Coombe as Shirley, Amy Field as Marion, model Tristan Temple as Jimmy, Kanako Nakano as Cynthia, John Brannoch as Frank and Steven Cleverley will play Bernadette’s younger self. Comprised mainly of newcomers to the West End stage, the young and energetic cast will be backed by an eleven member ensemble.
Staged by the same creative team that made Priscilla such a monster hit in Australia and New Zealand, the show also brings along its unique score of camp dancefloor classics including Don’t Leave Me This Way, Venus and I Will Survive. Priscilla sashays its way into the Palace Theatre next year, with performances beginning on Tuesday 10 March 2009. Tickets are on sale now.
