Our latest new set release has been designed not only to provide the iconic Priscilla Bus, but also a
colourful backdrop of set pieces for staging the complete show. These scenic notes are provided as
a guide only, and include information on how we envisage the set working for the majority of venues.
This set can also be used in smaller venues, including those with restricted flying facilities, however a
more flexible use of certain items will have to be adopted.
The Priscilla Bus: When used to its full, the bus manually revolves a full 360 degrees, and has a
simple central brake system. It has one open side to reveal the interior and drivers seat. The opposite
side portrays the exterior of the bus and includes a practical door and panels of LED lights.
(Please see separate detailed operational notes on the bus).
The main fixed set comprises of 3 sets of Red portal flats with matching soft headers. There is
an additional add-on vertical portal decoration with a built in LED strip to each portal flat. Portal
extensions to 1 and 2 also provided for larger venues if required. The Rear Desert Horizon Gauze
and Starcloth along with a moon light box should be positioned at the rear of the stage. This is used as
both a day and night time backing for all of the bus scenes. Two sets of red tabs are also supplied and
positioned D/S and U/S. The U/S tabs are used to mask the bus when not in use.
