Whether we were a Prom King, a Solid Gold Dancer or a Wallflower, we can’t look away from our prom. You can go home again, though, with the Heights Players. Their kick off show of the season—beginning September 6th and running weekends through September 22nd– is The Prom.
Four fading stars. One girl’s prom dream. A heartwarming tale of hope and change.
When prom in Edgewater, Indiana is cancelled to prevent a lesbian couple from dancing, Broadway saves the day. Love brings together a town, the forces of LGBTQ and the power of inclusion. Love, laughs and dancing shoes come to Edgewater—and Brooklyn Heights– in The Prom. A show “so filled with happiness that you think your heart is about to burst” (Variety).
Raise your hand if you don’t need that…..(ah, put it down, no Donnie Downers here.)
Get out your disco balls and lace up your dancing shoes and get down to the Heights Players on Willow Street.
Looks like a great cast getting ready for opening night.
The show won the Drama Desk Award for Best Musical with book and lyrics by Chad Beguelin, book by Bob Martin, and music by Matthew Sklar. Hope, inclusion and fun just in time for Fall.
