About the project:
Join for the inspiring musical comedy, “The Prom”. It’s a story about Broadway stars who support a teenager who wants to go to prom with her girlfriend. The musical is a celebration of love, acceptance, and being yourself.
The careers of four eccentric Broadway stars are struggling and they desperately need a new stage upon which to shine bright once more. Seeking out a cause, they head straight to small-town Indiana. Through social media, they have heard of trouble brewing around a school prom. Local girl, Emma Nolan, wants to take her girlfriend to prom but the homophobic PTA is on a mission to keep the high school dance on the straight and narrow. Determined to transform lives and put themselves back in the limelight, the Broadway celebrities muscle in to change the town and give Emma the prom she deserves.
