The West Ends latest musical opened in London last night to glowing reviews!
The show, which is based on a 1996 film, and follows the lives of two drag queens as they travel across Australia has been heaped with lots of praise from some of the countries fiercest critics.
Nicholas De Jongh from The Evening Standard says "London has never played host to a musical pitched on a higher level of gayness and camp comedy, transsexual barrier-breaking and bitchy, witty drag-queenery, than this ingenious adaptation of the sensational film of the same name.
At a time when escapist musicals are all the rage, here's a rare one that takes you happily out of yourself and into daring places your wildest fantasies might never have dreamed of visiting."
Simon Edge of the Daily Express says "But all wrapped up as a shiny, pinkbowed package, this sumptuously dressed show works gloriously, with its parade of ever more jaw-dropping costumes an utter feast for the eye.
Loud, lewd and lavish, it's about as subtle as a smack in the teeth with a didgeridoo, but who cares when it's this much fun?"
The musical stars Jason Donovan, who started his West End careers in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, and runs in the Palace Theatre.
