New immersive show ‘Priscilla the Party!’ is a fun, loud evening that distills the stage musical adaptation of the classic Aussie drag comedy ‘The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert’ into a slug of pure cabaret glee. Like the musical and the 1994 film, it’s a disco banger-soundtracked yarn that follows two drag queens and a trans woman as they drive their titular tour bus on an odyssey from Sydney to Alice Springs. The freewheeling sense of cabaret chaos feels like an appropriate way to tell this story in 2024. The audience is free to drift around the room, whoop away to their hearts’ desire, and even grab a drink mid-performance gives it a looseness and informality almost unheard of in the West End. It’s a bit rough around the edges, but its devotion to a good time is beyond question.
