One thing’s universal: Ryan Murphy’s film adaptation of beloved Broadway musical “The Prom” will bow on December 11th on Netflix! 

Even when you're a celebrity, you have to make sure you are putting out quality product. These famous artists know that, and that is why their shows linger in the memories of the audiences who saw them.

I approached Ryan Murphy’s film adaptation of THE PROM, expertly crafted for the stage by writers Bob Martin and Chad Beguelin and composer Matthew Sklar, with a lot of trepidation. Fortunately, most of my fears were misplaced and the final product is a joyous, technicolor celebration of living authentically that tugs all the right heartstrings while tickling every funny bone.
