Bellevue Little Theatre Premieres “The Prom”

This musical follows a young woman who wants to take her girl friend to her prom, but is denied that privilege by the local PTA . A group of brash actors hears of her plight and joins her in pleading her cause to the PTA.. The result is both touching and hilarious. This fast moving musical provides a message of inclusion, acceptance and love. It has an adult theme and audience members and parents should be cautioned of that before bringing young children.
