WDSG 2025 Production: The Prom

Save the date, book the corsage! Waikato Diocesan brings you their 2025 production of The Prom.

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 turns on her. On a mission to transform lives, Broadway's brassiest join forces with a courageous girl 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.
