Unskinny Bop Prom!

A big room full of dancing queers,
lovingly handcrafted decorations and
musical joy across the various popular genres.

Unskinny Bop presents the prom night of your dreams
featuring 3 rooms of high school entertainment and hours of non-normative disco fun including:

Class Photographer, A live Covers Band, 2 Disco Rooms,
Prom Cinema, Spiked Punch, Slow Dances, Chaperones, 2 bars
and
at least one person in a powder blue tuxedo

and.....
whatever else we can dream up between now and then!

Come as you are. Or dress up. Or use our prom accessories box.

Come on your own, come with friends, come with the object/s of your desire, come with chaperones, family, former arch-enemies or whoever.

We shall not be crowning a King & Queen. Popularity contests make losers out of all of us in the end. We are all winners at Prom.

Prom Manifesto:
1. Everything we learned about Prom was from movies, books & TV. Being British, to us the Prom is both utterly foreign and, as it’s an American institution, totally familiar.

2. We have learned many lessons about Prom from popular culture, chief amongst them being that if we had had the option to go to a real Prom as young’uns we almost certainly would not have gone, as we would have been both too Square to cope with the social pressures of Promdom and too HIP to wanna get involved in a big ole’ popularity contest steeped in the history of heteronormative oppression.

3. However, despite our reservations about what Prom can signify, we still think that movies and TV and the questionable, fictional glamour of our notion of American High School make the whole Prom thing seem pretty goddamn awesome.

4. We don’t want to go to Prom. We want to go to Prom in the movies. Unskinny Bop Prom is a Prom of the movies.

Unskinny Bop Prom is also the after party for the Fattylympics
