Just in time for Bachelorette Season!! 

The Awesome 80s Prom is a blast-from-the-past party in the style of Tony 'n Tina's Wedding set at Wanaget High's Senior Prom... in 1989

All your favorite characters from your favorite '80s movies are at THE PROM, from the Captain of the Football Team to the Asian Exchange Student, from the Geek to the hottie Head Cheerleader, and they're all competing for Prom King and Queen. And just like on "American Idol", the audience decides who wins, all while moonwalking to retro hits.

Come "Back In Time", to quote a Huey Lewis tune, and join the breakdance circle or just sit back and watch the '80s drama unfold.

WINNER! 2006 IMPROV THEATER AWARD - "BEST INTERACTIVE SHOW
