The cast of this show include Jason Donovan as Tick transvestite / Mitzi, Tony Sheldon as Bernadette and Oliver Thornton as transsexual transvestite Adam / Felicia. Zoe Birkett, a former contestant of ITV’s Pop Idol show, will play one of the dive. Jason Donovan is an Australian actor and singer who had the biggest selling album in the UK in 1989.
Priscilla Queen of the Desert replaces Monty Python’s Spamalot, which will end Jan. 3. Other recent exhibitions were at the Palace Theatre Les Misérables, which runs from 1985-2004, The Woman in White from 2004-2006 and Whistle Down the Wind in 2006. The Palace Theater was home to several productions that were long runs. Les Miserables ran for nineteen years, and Jesus Christ Superstar for eight years, from 1972 to 1980. The Sound of Music was performed 2,385 times in 1960. The Palace Theatre has also produced No, No, Nanette, who ran for 665 performances in 1920.
The Palace Theatre was built as an opera by Richard D’Oyly Carte in 1890. The structure was designed by Thomas Edward Collcutt and was considered a new design during construction. Collcutt concrete used in many areas of the theater to reduce the risk of fire damage. He also used steel cantilever to the support in order to avoid blocking the view of the stage pillars.
The theater was originally named the Royal English Opera House. Unfortunately did not have enough lined paper works to keep open the opera house, and ended up selling the building to Walter Emden, who turned it into a music room. The property was renamed the Palace Theatre in variety and has been successful under new ownership. In 1911, the name was shortened to the Palace Theatre.
It ‘been said that the Palace Theatre is haunted by the ghosts of Anna Pavlova and Ivor Novello. Anna Pavlova was a Russian dancer who performed at the Palace while he was under the direction of Alfred Butt. He died of pneumonia shortly before his 50th birthday. Ivor Novello was a Welsh composer who also acted on stage from time to time.
The Palace Theatre is located in Shaftesbury Avenue, near Chinatown and Leicester Square. It seats 1,394 people at four levels: stalls, Dress Circle, Grand Circle and Balcony. The seats that have limited views are available at a lower price and can often be positive because most of them, especially in the last three rows of stalls, the restriction is not serious.
