| The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert |
Brashly scripted,
The Adventures of Priscilla.features outrageous costumes and a high-camp soundtrack.

A bitchy, gaudy, kitsch comedy classic,
The Adventures of Priscilla. established a firm position for gay culture in the Australian mainstream.
