The bad news: the Aussie drag-queen classic movie “Priscilla, Queen of the Desert” has been turned into a giant stage musical that will soon open in London. The good news: Down Under, where the show premiered, it topped “Mamma Mia!” at the box office. The bad news: it’s still a version of “Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.” The good news: the movie and stage version’s director, Stephan Elliott, has also helmed a new movie, “Easy Virtue” (based on a Noel Coward play), which stars Kristin Scott Thomas and Colin Firth.
