OGDENSBURG -- The Ogdensburg Free Academy Music Department will present its fall musical in the George Hall Auditorium at OFA on Friday and Saturday evening, December 2 and 3 at 7 p.m. Doors open at 6:15 p.m.
Tickets are $7 for general admission and $5 for senior citizens and students.
The production has been underway since the beginning of the school year. Many of the students who performed in last year’s “A Night at the Cabaret” returned to be a part of this year’s musical.
Zombie Prom is a musical comedy that takes the audience on a stroll through America’s Atomic Age and the Golden Age of horror comic books. Set in the ‘50s, this is a tale of a sweet teenage girl named Toffee (Hailey Weber) and her “rebel without a cause” boyfriend, Jonny (Connor Banning). The two meet at Enrico Fermi High School and fall in love, but the principal, Miss Delilah Strict (Lizzy Peo) intervenes, persuading the indecisive young Toffee to break up with Jonny. Tortured by the betrayal, Jonny drives his motorcycle to the nearby Francis Gary Powers Nuclear Power Plant and flings himself into a nuclear cooling tower!
Guilt ridden and alone, Toffee mourns the loss of her love, until one day when Jonny returns, risen from the dead as a teenage nuclear zombie. The mass of decomposing flesh 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 will have him. Toffee is racked with indecision, but worst of all Miss Strict refuses to allow “zombie scum” in her fine institution. She clearly states that the satanic walking dead are strictly prohibited at Enrico Fermi High. She even threatens to cancel the senior prom if anyone is caught supporting Jonny.
At the same time, word of this conflict reaches Eddie Flagrante (Brandon Bogart), a slick sensationalist TV show host who loves a lost cause. Eddie arrives at the school with his film crew to cover the story and make Jonny a celebrity cause. Once he arrives, we see that he and Miss Strict share a past, shrouded in an elusive mystery.
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 the Senior Prom, ruining the most important night in the lives of the students at Enrico Fermi High? What secrets will be revealed and who will be affected most by them?
The production is under the direction of Sara Pabis.
