"The Prom" Enters Final Weekend at Broadway Theatre of Pitman

Published by New Jersey Stage

originally published: 07/23/2024


(PITMAN, NJ) -- There are just four performances left for The Prom at Broadway Theatre of Pitman. Broadway's hit musical comedy closes on Sunday, July 28, 2024. In the play, 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 has a date with destiny. On a mission to transform lives, Broadway’s brassiest join forces with a courageous girl and the town’s citizens 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.

Remaining performances take place Friday, July 26 at 8:00pm; Saturday, July 27 at 2:00pm & 8:00pm; and Sunday, July 28 at 2:00pm. Tickets are available for purchase online.

The Broadway Theatre of Pitman is located at 43 S Broadway, Pitman, New Jersey. Originally opened in May 1926, the Broadway operated as a fully equipped movie and vaudeville theater with 1,090 seats, including the balcony and eight boxes. The opulent New Jersey theatre was created in a French Revival motif by the Philadelphia firm of Eberhard, Magaziner, and Harris.
