The Lyric Club, Glasgow's amateur theatre group, brings its production of the musical 'Priscilla Queen of the Desert' to the historic King's Theatre.
The Lyric Club are bringing Priscilla Queen of the Desert to the King's Theatre in April 2027, with performances running from Wednesday 7 April through to Saturday 10 April. It's a short run of four days, so if you're planning to go, you'll want to pick your night early rather than leaving it until the last minute.
For those who haven't seen it, Priscilla Queen of the Desert is the musical version of the story about two drag queens and a transgender woman who travel across the Australian outback in a bus they've named Priscilla. It's a big, colourful production that doesn't shy away from its camp roots, and it's being put on here by The Lyric Club, one of the city's amateur groups. The show is known for its costumes and its soundtrack, so it's the kind of thing that works best when you're there in person.
The venue is the King's Theatre, which opened back in 1904 and is one of Glasgow's most historic theatres. It's well known for its Christmas pantomimes, but it also gives the city's amateur groups a high-profile stage to work with. That's exactly what's happening here: a local group taking a well-known musical into one of the city's biggest and oldest theatres.

With the run starting on Wednesday 7 April and wrapping up on Saturday 10 April, you've got four nights to choose from. If you're after a midweek show, the 7th, 8th, and 9th are your best bets; if you'd rather keep it to the weekend, the 10th is the one. It's a short window, so it's worth getting your date sorted sooner rather than later.
