Girl meets Ghoul in Zombie Prom

Dana P. Rowe’s and John Dempsey’s camp musical, Zombie Prom, will make its way to the Stephen F. Austin High School stage (3434 Pheasant Creek Drive, Sugar Land 77498), just in time to get you in the spirit for Valentine’s Day (or a super early Halloween treat). This throwback to the low-budget horror movies of the 1950’s will play at 7:00pm on Friday, January 30th & Saturday, January 31st, as well as Friday, February 6th & Saturday, February 7th, 2015.

This girl loves ghoul rock and roll Off Broadway musical is set in the atomic 1950s at Enrico Fermi High, where the law is laid down by a zany, tyrannical principal. Pretty senior Toffee has fallen for the class bad boy. Family pressure forces her to end the romance, and he charges off on his motorcycle to the nuclear waste dump. He returns glowing and determined to reclaim Toffee’s heart. He still wants to graduate, but most of all he wants to take Toffee to the prom. The principal orders him to drop dead while a scandal reporter seizes on him as the freak du jour. History comes to his rescue while a tuneful selection of original songs in the style of 50s hits keeps the action rocking across the stage.

Tickets can be purchased at an advance sale price of $8.00 for students and $12.00 for adults. At the door, tickets can be purchased at $10.00 for students and $15.00 for adults.
