International smash hit musical Priscilla Queen of the Desert returns to Manchester from February 17-22.

Jason Donovan will reprise the role of Tick, the part he played when the show originally opened in the West End, and this production will also star Richard Grieve as Bernadette and Graham Weaver as Felicia.

The show will play the Palace Theatre, having opened the tour at the Opera House last year.
With its dazzling costumes and a hit parade of dancefloor favorites including "It’s Raining Men", "Say a Little Prayer", "Go West", "Hot Stuff" and "Always on My Mind", this musical originally opened in Australia in 2006 where it ran for two years before opening in the West End for a run of a further two years.

The show recently played a hugely successful season on Broadway. Along the way, it has won numerous awards including the prestigious Olivier and Tony Awards for Best Costume Design.
