The Prom


New Jersey’s first professional production of the musical about four down-on-their-luck Broadway stars who shake up a small Indiana town as they rally behind a teen who wants to go to the prom with her girlfriend. Nominated for six Tony Awards, the New York Times called the show “such a joyful hoot….it makes you believe in musical comedy again.” The Axelrod Performing Arts Center is located in Deal Park, N.J., just 5 minutes from downtown Asbury Park, with plenty of free parking.


Ages: teens to adult
