Sydney will first welcome the musical, with the Sydney Opera House playing home to the show, before the cast and crew set out on an extensive tour around Australia.

His story was first told in the documentary Jamie – Drag Queen at Sixteen, and then adapted into the popular musical. The show tells the story of Jamie overcoming obstacles and bullies to become his true self – all to a banging soundtrack.
