The Prom at Thalian Hall

Four eccentric Broadway stars 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. On a mission to transform lives, Broadway’s brassiest join forces with a courageous girl and the town’s citizens and the result is love that brings them all together. 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 message that resonates with audiences now more than ever. THE PROM is directed and choreographed by Carson Hobbs (Broadway's WICKED) with music direction by Brian Whitted (Broadway's CHICAGO).

THE PROM features Sydney Smith Martin as Emma Nolan, Jeff Phillips as Barry Glickman, Heather Setzler as Dee Dee Allen, Shayne Maggard as Alyssa Greene, Jon Tyler Berry* as Trent Oliver, Erin Sullivan as Angie Dickinson, Steve Hassmer as Tom Hawkins, Aimee Henderson as Mrs. Greene, and Chad Hsu as Sheldon Saperstein. THE PROM runs September 7-17, 2023 at Historic Thalian Hall in Downtown Wilmington. Tickets at www.OperaHouseTheatreCompany.org.
