About

This spectacular show tells the uplifting story of a trio of friends on a road trip of a lifetime, who hop aboard a battered old bus searching for love and friendship in the middle of the Australian outback and end up finding more than they could ever have dreamed.

An international hit with over 500 dazzling, 2011 Tony® Award-winning costumes, PRISCILLA features a hit parade of dance-floor favorites including "It's Raining Men," "Finally" and "I Will Survive." The Hollywood Reporter calls PRISCILLA "funny and fabulous! Joyous entertainment with eye-popping visuals and unexpected heart!"

    Misleading & nasty

    by Blw7 on 3/29/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    Musical summary and review was totally misleading. Crass and vulgar. Sexual innuendo and coarse joking was the norm. Should specify the lgbt theme in the description. We left after 40 minutes!

    Priscilla brought me back to my college days music

    by ndstew on 3/29/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    This play brought back many fond memories of the disco days and the crazy costumes, but also the classic music! I was singing along and my toes tapped throughout the show! The actors were energizing and were great to watched. They outdid themselves!! The crowd was really into the music and the campiness of the show!!!

    Priscilla was great

    by denatc on 3/28/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    The costumes were fantastic , sometimes difficult to tell if the performers were actually men or women and music score was excellent, the choreography was excellent, and sharp. Overall this was an excellent performance by the entire cast.

    A high energy, fun evening!

    by Blanster on 3/28/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    The costumes and sets were out of this world! The singing was stellar and the songs made you want to sing along. I left the theater with "It's Raining Men" and "I Will Survive" stuck in my head. It was a terrific evening!

    A night of high energy and great music

    by Chikind on 3/27/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    I'm not normally a huge fan of the big musicals, but this was just so much fun. Great colorful costumes, great voices, high energy, energetic music. Lots of colors and visuals to match. A great campy musical that will pick you up and make you happy!

    Oh what a night!

    by Greenscreen on 3/27/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    Saw it on Broadway and now the tour. The special Monday night performance brought in many theater people on their night off, including some from Mormon. They hooted, hollered, laughed and applauded wildly. Priscilla is an o-so-much-fun time. GO!

    lots of laughs

    by RSBG on 3/26/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    Went as a fun family evening with teenage children. Didn't expect a serious, high quality show so were very pleased with a show that kept everyone in our party entertained the whole time. (teen daughters, husband/wife, and a grandma!)

    A jock in a frock on a what?

    by VillaParkNick on 3/26/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    We loved this production. Fun , over the top extravagance, filled with comedy and true to the film - amazing colorful costumes!! This show comes at a perfect time as our country and community faces a landmark decision. Stand strong, my bothers & sisters, keep singing and dancing your butts off!!

    Wonderful!

    by glyph on 3/26/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    The singing, dancing and costumes are first rate. The cast is very talented. Admittedly the story is somewhat thin, but that's pretty common for musical theatre. Overall I would strongly recommend this show.

    Priscilla was Totally Entertaining

    by photomaven2000 on 3/26/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    LOVED, LOVED, LOVED IT! We were there on a Sunday evening. Top notch show, top notch cast. The character portrayals were well done... far enough over the top to make the point but not so far out there to turn it into a farce. And the underlying personal stories of the lead characters made you root for them. A job well done! Kudos to tech crew, lighting, props and costumes etc... and the cast for being able to navigate/move/dance in some pretty big, bulky footwear and costumes..

    Priscilla was an OK show

    by Aninha on 3/26/13Auditorium Theatre - Chicago

    The well-known songs help you to get in the mood, but the poor dance and singing do not get you awe.
