This wonderfully inventive, visually stunning and incomparably funny Australian import about three drag performers braving the vast, rugged outback won the 1994 Academy Award for Costume Design. Brilliant actors Terence Stamp, Hugo Weaving, and Guy Pearce all give hilarious—and heartfelt—performances in a one of the wildest movies ever made. With a contract to appear in a drag show way out in the Australian desert, each of the three performers has his own reasons for wanting to leave the safety of Sydney. Christening their battered, lavender tour bus "Priscilla," the funny and highly dramatic trio head for the outback and into a series of strange adventures.
