 Two drag-queens (Anthony/Mitzi and Adam/Felicia) and a transgender woman contract to perform a drag show at a resort in Alice Springs| a resort town in the remote
Australian desert. They head west from Sydney aboard their lavender bus| Priscilla. En route| it is discovered that the woman they've contracted with is Anthony's
wife. Their bus breaks down| and is repaired by Bob| who travels on with them.
While its premise is ripe for comedy -- and it certainly delivers its fair share of laughs -- Priscilla is also a surprisingly tender and thoughtful road movie with
some outstanding performances.  |
