GLAAD is making rainbow dreams come true. Caitlin Kinnunen, standout star of Broadway's The Prom, has signed on to offer up a special performance of the musical's moving song "Unruly Heart" at the 2019 GLAAD Media Awards. The event, scheduled for May 4 in New York City, will be broadcast on Logo on May 12 at 8:00pm ET.
The annual awards gala of GLAAD—the world's largest lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer media advocacy organization—will also feature an appearance by Broadway producer Ryan Murphy (The Boys in the Band) who recently announced that he will adapt The Prom into a movie for Netflix.
Featuring a book by Bob Martin and Chad Beguelin, music by Matthew Sklar and lyrics by Beguelin, The Prom centers on Emma (Kinnunen), a gay student who is unceremoniously sidelined from her prom when she decides to take her girlfriend. When Broadway's brassiest stars find out, they gear up to save the day.
