SAN ANTONIO – The Wonder Theatre is bringing the Broadway musical “The Prom” to San Antonio for a four-week run.

The musical centers on “four fading Broadway stars lamenting their days of fame as they travel to a conservative town in Indiana to help a lesbian student banned from bringing her girlfriend to the high school prom,” according to a news release.

The musical is based on actual events that took place in 2010 in Itawamba County, Mississippi.

“The world has changed since I was in high school, and I would have never thought that taking a boy to prom would have been an option. Today’s youth have it better than we had it, but it’s still not an easy road for them,” director Chris Rodriguez said.
