THEATRE IN THE PARK ACADEMY CAMP - ZOMBIE PROM (6th-12th grade; ages 12-18)
Pretty High School 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.
