1994 Australian film by Stephan Elliott
Summary
The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert is a 1994 Australian road comedy film written and directed by Stephan Elliott. The plot follows two drag queens and a transgender woman, as they journey across the Australian Outback on a tour bus named Priscilla, along the way encountering various groups and individuals. The film was based upon the lives of three actual drag queens—Cindy Pastel, Strykermeyer, and Lady Bump—who were to play themselves but were later replaced with what the studio considered "bankable" actors.
