It’s a story of love, acceptance and embracing the person you were meant to be.

You’re invited to The Prom, Broadway’s new smash hit and now a major motion picture on Netflix that’s full of sparkle and “Zazz!”

The Prom – it’s about a love that unites them all!

Tony nominated for Best Musical and winner of Best Musical Score.
