“The Prom” is the joyous Broadway hit that New York Magazine called “smart and big-hearted” and The New York Times declared a Critic’s Pick. Winner of the 2019 Drama Desk Award for Best Musical, it’s the musical comedy hit about big Broadway stars on a mission to change the world and the love they discover that unites them all. From the creative team that brought you “The Book of Mormon,” “The Drowsy Chaperone” and “Elf” comes a show that The New York Times says, “makes you believe in musical comedy again.”

This hit musical stars Kaden Kearney as Emma, a high school student, banned from the prom, Kalyn West as Alyssa Greene, head of student council with a secret, Courtney Balan as Tony Award winner Dee Dee Allen, Patrick Wetzel as Drama Desk Award winner Barry Glickman, Emily Borromeo as Angie Dickinson, Broadway chorine, Bud Weber as Trent Oliver, esteemed Julliard graduate/cater waiter, Sinclair Mitchell as Mr. Hawkins, high school principal, Ashanti J’Aria as Mrs. Greene, president of the PTA and Shavey Brown as Sheldon Saperstein, Broadway’s press agent with a plan.
