Synopsis
Senior Prom is another of those musical salads of the 1950s, heavy on the guest stars but very light on plot. The story concerns the romance between pretty high-schooler Gay Sherridan (Jill Corey) and wealthy BMOC Carter Breed III (portrayed by future "Billy Jack" star-auteur
Tom Laughlin
). Actually, the right boy for Gay is poor-but-likeable Tom Harper (
Paul Hampton
), so guess who winds up taking Gay to the senior prom? Well, nobody really cares, not with such topnotch musical talents on hand as
Louis Prima
& Keely Smith, Sam Butera & The Witnesses,
Connee Boswell
,
Bob Crosby
, Toni Arden, Jose Melis, Freddy Martin & His Orchestra, Les Elgart, and even Mitch Miller. And, oh yes,
Ed Sullivan
shows up too. Senior Prom was produced by Harry Romm and directed by
David Lowell Rich
, the same team responsible for the Three Stooges' comeback feature Have Rocket Will Travel; in fact, this musical's associate producer was
