Complete casting and the creative team have been announced for Pride Films and Plays' production of the Tony Award-winning musical Priscilla: Queen of the Desert, which will run Jan. 12-Feb. 12, 2017, as the company's inaugural production in its two-stage Pride Arts Center.

The musical will be performed in The Broadway, the center's 85-seat space at 4139 N. Broadway.

Executive Director David Zak will co-direct the production with Artistic Associate Derek Van Barham. Artistic Associate Robert Ollis will be music director, Jon Martinez will choreograph and Jeff Award-winner John Nasca is designing the costumes.

The trio of performers—two drag queens and a transgender woman—who traverse the Australian Outback in a beaten-up bus nicknamed "Priscilla" will be played by Honey West, Jordan Phelps and Luke Meierdiercks, with Jill Sesso, Tuesdai Perry and Rebecca Coleman as the three Divas and John Cardone as Bob.

Tickets are $30-$40; visit PrideFilmsAndPlays.com or call 800-737-0984.
