Hot off the heels of two sell-out shows, The Bohemians next stop is at The Festival theatre with a live sing-a-long performance of Priscilla Queen of the Desert.
In honour of the 30th anniversary of the cult classic, The Bohemians are performing the jukebox musical in their largest venue yet, with a one-night-only chance to sing-along with the performers. Audience members can don their disco boots and belt out their favourite pop anthems, including ‘I Will Survive’, ‘Girls Just Wanna Have Fun’ and ‘What’s Love Got to Do With It’. This groundbreaking choice by the company marks the first full length sing-along musical performance in Edinburgh.
Priscilla Queen of the Desert tells the story of three performers, Adam, Tick and Bernadette, who are booked to perform a show in the heart of The Australian Outback. Follow the glamorous trio through the highs and lows of their journey across the desert as they travel on their bus, Priscilla. The three friends encounter a comedy of errors, with a number of strange characters in this heart-warming tale of love and self-discovery.
Chairman, Kirsty Tomassi is delighted with this bold choice of 2025 musical, stating:
“The Bohemians are known for putting on professional standard shows and next year will be no different. After our sell-out run of Sunshine on Leith and the incredible reception from audiences, we felt there was no better show for us than Priscilla. Adding the sing-along is going to create an electric atmosphere – it’s absolutely not to be missed.”
This announcement follows on from the company’s success with their 2024 production of ‘Sunshine on Leith’ – garnering 4 star reviews across the board. Theatre Scotland said:
“All of this cast were fantastic on stage, every one of them were stellar comedy actors and beautiful vocalists.”
Reviewer Corr Blimey said:
“The Bohemians continue this passion with confidence and skill, inviting everyone in Edinburgh (and further) into a warm embrace and a cracker of a show. “
