AUSTRALIAN star Jason Donovan has dusted down his high heels for a musical return to the stage.
The former soap actor and chart-topping singer is starring in a touring version of Priscilla Queen of the Desert, which opens at Newcastle Theatre Royal tonight (MON).
The singer has revived his West End role of drag queen Tick, one of three friends crossing the Australian outback in a battered old bus.
The show, peppered with dancefloor favourites including It’s Raining Men and Hot Stuff, runs until February 15.
Tickets, priced from £15, are available from www.theatreroyal.co.uk or 08448 11 21 21.
