The Prom at Birmingham Village Players

Birmingham Village Players is inviting you to The Prom, May 3-19, a joyous, funny and sweet production that will appeal to several generations of musical fans!

The Prom follows Emma, a high school student who dreams of taking her girlfriend to their senior prom. Unfortunately, her plans are foiled by a homophobic PTA. When her story pops up on Twitter, four Broadway has-beens see a PR opportunity in the situation. They descend upon Emma’s small Indiana town and wreak havoc as everyone learns a lesson of tolerance and selflessness along the way.

The Prom is an amazing musical according to producer Laura Quinn of Clawson. “It has everything—great tunes, a heartwarming story, and a powerful message about acceptance and staying true to yourself.  I feel privileged to help bring this uplifting show to the Community Theater stage in this area for the first time, sharing its inspiring message of love and inclusivity!"

Birmingham Village Players with the support of our Red Carpet Sponsor of the Season, Ameritax Plus of Berkley, is proud to present The Prom by Bob Martin and Chad Beguelin from May 3-19, 2024. Performances are Friday and Saturday nights (May 3, 4, 10, 11, 17, 18) at 8:00PM and Sunday afternoons (May 5, 12, 19) at 2:00PM. Reserved tickets are $25 (includes ticketing fee) and can be purchased by calling the box office, 248-644-2075, or from the website www.birminghamvillageplayers.com to place your order.
