This year’s first fall show is Zombie Prom the musical, book and lyrics by John Dempsey, music by Dana P. Rowe.

Set in the 1950s, a sweet teenage girl named Toffee and her “rebel without an H” boyfriend, Jonny, take the stage. The two meet at Enrico Fermi High School and fall in love, but the principal, Miss Delilah Strict intervenes, persuading Toffee to break up with Jonny. Tortured by the betrayal, Jonny drives his motorcycle to the nearby Nuclear Power Plant and flings himself into a nuclear cooling tower!

Toffee mourns the loss of her love, until one day when Jonny returns, risen from the dead as a teenage nuclear zombie! Jonny professes his love and tells Toffee that he wants her back. He plans to clean up his act, finish school and take her to the senior prom, if she’ll have him. Toffee is racked with indecision, but worst of all, Miss Strict refuses to allow “zombie scum” in her fine institution. She even threatens to cancel the senior prom if anyone is caught supporting the zombie’s cause.

At the same time, word of this conflict reaches Eddie Flagrante, a slick TV show host who loves getting the scoop. Eddie arrives at the school to cover the story, but once he arrives, we see that he and Miss Strict share a past.

As crisis takes hold of the school, the following questions are raised: Will Toffee take Jonny back? Will Miss Strict let Jonny come back and finish school, or will she cancel Senior Prom, ruining the most important night in the lives of the students of Enrico Fermi High!?

“You’re going to love this show. I zombie promise,” says Devin Hott, who plays Ginger in the show.
