'The Prom': How Nicole Kidman, Meryl Streep and Keegan-Michael Key Learned to Dance and Sing for the Musical Comedy

11:15 AM 1/22/2021 by Naveen Kumar Netflix's musical comedy — about a group of self-centered actors who descend upon small-town Indiana to support a teenager banned from bringing her girlfriend to the dance — required its A-list stars to step out of their comfort zones. Courtesy of NETFLIX Step One: Teach Nicole Kidman to Move Like a Chorus Girl Nicole Kidman is no stranger to musicals, having won a Golden Globe for her star-making performance in 2001's Moulin Rouge! and later appearing in Rob Marshall's 2009 adaptation of the Broadway musical Nine. Angie, Kidman's character in The Prom, is a seasoned Broadway chorus girl, the type whose hope of catching a big break may have dimmed, but who still relishes a career hoofing in the footlights. It's this spirit of perseverance and wonder that drives Kidman's big solo, in which she encourages young Emma (Jo Ellen Pellman) to put some pep in her step and ultimately triumph over the bullies at school (and in the PTA) with a song titled "Zazz."

How 'The Prom' Changed Dancer Vasthy Mompoint's Life 3 Times From Broadway to Netflix

Updated: 6:17 AM PST, December 26, 2020 Originally hired as a dancer in the movie musical on Netflix, Vasthy Mompoint was pulled from its chorus to lead choreography for several days during the height of racial justice protests.  For Vasthy Mompoint, the Black Lives Matter movement hit her heart the moment she walked onto the set of "The Prom” over the summer. She was the only person of color there, and for the first time in her life, she had authority. That simple realization raised her consciousness and her self-esteem. "That is what this movement is all about," she said to herself. Originally hired as a dancer in the movie musical on Netflix, the Haitan-American dancer was pulled from its chorus to lead choreography for several days during the height of racial justice protests. Production on the film had just picked up again in Los Angeles using strict COVID-19 safety protocols. The movie’s choreographer, Casey Nicholaw, and his associates could not be there. So he asked Mompoint to take over. 

Bay Area Reporter :: Bombing 'The Prom'

Chicago got the ball rolling. Then it was followed by the dismal Nine and the disastrous Into The Woods. Marshall's next project? The live-action The Little Mermaid. Now Ryan Murphy, who shares Marshall's initials, as well as his taste for bombast and Meryl Streep, has entered the fray with his big screen version of the Tony-nominated 2018 musical The Prom (Netflix). Murphy's love of musicals and theatrics can be traced back to his inexplicably popular network TV series Glee. His Emmy-winning 2014 movie adaptation of Larry Kramer's dramatic play The Normal Heart proved he had the talent for transferring stage to screen.

"Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman Whoop It Up In This Fun Musical The Prom" – Subhash K Jha | BollySpice.com – The latest movies, interviews in Bollywood

The Prom (Netflix) Starring: Meryl Streep, James Corden, Nicole Kidman, Keegan-Michael Key, Andrew Rannells, Ariana DeBose, Tracey Ullman, Kevin Chamberlin, Mary Kay Place, Kerry Washington, Jo Ellen Pellman. Directed by Ryan Murphy I’d wade through waist-deep slush to see a dream cast like this. Luckily I had to do no such thing, as The Prom , with all its glorious pomp and surrender, arrived at my doorstep. A full-blown musical where everyone speaks in shrill excitement and every frame is punctuated by an exclamation, this is an old-fashioned musical with a new-age twist. And the cast helmed by the one-and-only Meryl Streep digs its high heels deep into the funscape about bunch of on-the-skids Broadway stars who look for a ‘cause’ to ignite their flickering career. The ‘cause they choose is Emma (Jo Ellen Pellman) a fresh-faced dewy-eyes highschool ingenue in a small town who is not allowed to participate in her school prom when her date turns out to be a girl.

The Prom delivers a fun, feel-good Netflix date

The Prom delivers a fun, feel-good Netflix date Despite pacing problems and a miscast James Corden, this starry adaptation of the Broadway musical scores big laughs by Glenn Sumi on December 12th, 2020 at 5:00 PM 1 of 1 2 of 1 The Prom  When The Prom debuted on Broadway in 2018, most people complained it had two competing stories. One was a hilarious satire about show-business self-absorption—which everyone, including me, thought was superior—while the other was a sentimental one about inclusion and diversity in middle America. Ryan Murphy’s charming new Netflix adaptation of The Prom makes the transitions between these stories smoother. But some wonky casting choices and an overly long running time might make you check the other “What’s new on Netflix” offerings during its lengthy second half.
