So when they hear that trouble is brewing around a small-town prom, they know that it’s time to put a spotlight on the issue…and themselves. The town’s parents want to keep the high school dance on the straight and narrow—but when one student just wants to bring her girlfriend to prom, the entire town has a date with destiny. Winner of the Drama Desk Award for Best Musical, The Prom expertly captures all the humor and heart of a classic musical comedy with a message that resonates with audiences now more than ever. Directed by Joe Asente with Music Direction by Ryan Lamb and Choreography by Danielle Mentzer. The Prom will run two weekends at the Youngstown Playhouse January 3-5 & 10-12.
