OverallTony nomination: Best Musical8A

The Prom

Broadway

Mar 9, 2019

Longacre Theatre (Broadway)

I was supposed to be seeing Gary, the sequel to Titus Andronicus tonight with Nathan Lane, but the costar was sick and so they had to cancel. It was disappointing, but I really enjoyed the spur of the moment replacement of The Prom. Huge cast though I only remember the voice of Christopher Sieber in particular putting this in years later.
