Prom night is either filled with dancing, laughs and joyous memories or one of the worst nights of your high school life. In this production of The Prom put on by Eastern Washington University’s theater department, an Indiana teenager named Emma learns her prom has been canceled because she wants to bring her girlfriend as her date. After discovering this injustice via Twitter, four eccentric Broadway stars in need of an ego boost decide to go to Indiana and tackle the issue themselves. What ensues is a story of love, hope and a fight for inclusivity in a rural town. Though Emma’s prom night doesn’t go exactly as she hoped it would, she makes new memories and friends that she’ll hold dear for a lifetime.
