Video: Kate Baldwin & More in THE PROM at The Sharon Playhouse

The Sharon Playhouse is currently presenting The Prom through August 11th. Watch the company perform the show's finale "It's Time To Dance" in this all-new video.

Broadway's hit musical comedy, The Prom is what Broadway heart is all about! Inspired by a true story, this seven-time TONY Award-nominated musical follows four eccentric Broadway stars who are in desperate need of a new stage. 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 tuneful score and a theme that resonates with audiences now more than ever.
