Rissa Williams
as Dee Dee Allen
is a junior Musical Theatre major who is beyond joyful to have been given the opportunity of this role. They love to work their craft, inside and out, every day because to them they can always do more. Rissa enjoys both the onstage and offstage experiences because the audience and those beaming lights make everything worth it. They want to thank all their musical instructors who helped let this show become amazing, their family, their friends who spent late nights with them, and to anyone out there that this story can really show them what queer love is like.

Eleanor Bain
as Angie Dickenson
is so zazzed to be in The Prom! As a senior musical theater major, she is very sad that this is her final all-school musical, but she is incredibly grateful for the people she’s met and the experiences she’s had in her seven transformative years at CAPA. You may remember her—or at least her nose—as Pinocchio in the department’s production of Shrek the Musical earlier this year! She’d like to give a special shout-out to all of her teachers, especially Mrs. Lybarger, Ms. Williams, and Mr. Fedele, who inspired and encouraged her to grow. She couldn’t have done it, and probably wouldn’t have even been able to try, without them!!
