The Prom

Book & Lyrics by CHAD BEGUELIN Book by BOB MARTIN Music by MATTHEW SKLAR Directed by Chauntee' Schuler Irving
Choreography by Courtney Liu

Join us for a heartwarming and hilarious musical that celebrates love, acceptance, and standing up for what is right. The story follows Emma, a high school student who faces opposition from her school's PTA for wanting to take her girlfriend to the prom. Broadway stars travel to Indiana to support Emma and become advocates for LGBTQ+ rights. With catchy tunes and a heartwarming message, The Prom is a joyful celebration of inclusivity and kindness.

The Prom is the culmination of PlayMakers’ Summer Youth Conservatory, a six-week practicum for high school students—both on stage and behind the scenes—combining top-notch teaching with unparalleled practical experience. Students work with professional directors, choreographers, musical directors, and theatre technicians to mount a professional quality production for all to enjoy.
