What’s coming up in the month of October:
the musical comedy
Sunday, October 31 Richardson Theatre, Fort Shafter
Theatre Night
Join us for a special Blue Star Card Sunday
Matinee performance of Army Community
Theatre’s production of the musical comedy
Zombie Prom on Sunday, October 31. 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.
Curtain call is at 3:00 pm. Enjoy free pupus prior
to the show and transportation. Limited child
care will be provided. We will also be having a
costume contest so be sure to dress up! Spaces
are limited. Please call 655-0002 or [email protected] by October 22.
