Newbies at Ateneo Blue Repertory are raring to deliver the best night of your life with “The Prom.” With music by Matthew Sklar (“The Wedding Singer”), lyrics by Chad Beguelin (Disney’s “Aladdin”), and book by Bob Martin (“The Drowsy Chaperone”), and Beguelin, “The Prom” was Drama Desk Award’s Outstanding Musical in 2019.
“The Prom” tells the story of a lesbian high schooler, Emma, in Edgewater, Indiana, who has been barred from bringing her girlfriend to their high school prom. Narcissistic Broadway actors Dee Dee and Barry gravitate toward Emma’s case and travel to Indiana to fight such an injustice--hoping to reconfigure their public image as woke and selfless.
