WISTA presents THE PROM! Book & Lyrics by Chad Beguelin Book by Bob Martin Music by Matthew Sklar Based on an original concept by Jack Viertel It’s time to DANCE! Winner of the Drama Desk Award for Best Musical and recently adapted as a 2020 Netflix film, 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. Following a failed opening night, four melodramatic Broadway stars are determined to find a “selfless” cause to show audiences that they are not as narcissistic as the theatre critics suggest. They discover a trending Twitter news article about a high school in small town Indiana whose prom was cancelled by the PTA after one student requested to bring her girlfriend as her date. On a mission to change the minds of the town, save the prom, and prove the theatre critics wrong, can the Broadway stars succeed at promoting a culture of inclusion and acceptance while learning to share the spotlight? 6 PERFORMANCES ONLY! June 30 – July 8
