When Priscilla Queen of the Desert Tony nominee Tony Sheldon sits down at his dressing room table at Broadway's Palace Theatre, he's a self-proclaimed "gray-haired middle-aged man." By the time he's ready to take the stage, Sheldon has bloomed into glamorous nightclub singer Bernadette. To get himself in the proper spirit, Sheldon covers his walls with posters of classic Broadway shows and other showbiz memorabilia.
