THE PROM the Musical is loosely based on a true story.

It follows four self-absorbed professional actors who take up a cause defending a lesbian student, Emma, who has been denied access to her school’s prom in a fictitious Indiana community after trying to bring her girlfriend. Although the exercise begins as a self-congratulatory effort by the actors to rehabilitate their own image, the group learns empathy and understanding through championing Emma’s acceptance in her community and giving her an unforgettable prom.
