LOS ANGELES, Calif. – MichaAngela Productions has announced its Gold Sponsorship of Flaming Hearts Media (FHM) and Grooby’s first “Queer Prom: Come as You Are,” coming up Wednesday, September 4 at the Avalon theater in Hollywood.

“To thee dear Grooby High School, we raise our glasses high, never to be forgotten in the years that pass us by,” said Micha Angela. “We’ll always remember our roots, the school we love the most, to our dear alma mater, raise glasses for a toast.  MichaAngela Productions is happy to help this one come to life, as all of the boys and girls who couldn’t make their first proms, this one is for you:”

If you’re just staring at your walls

Observing echoing footfalls

From tenants wandering distant halls

Then this one is for you

If children playing all around

To you is noise not a pleasant sound

And you’d be lost on the playground

Then this one is for you

All alone the life you lead

A silent diner where you feed

Bow your head pretend to read

This one is for you

Slip past strangers in the street

There’s no one that you care to meet

Longing for your TV seat

This one is for you

-Trey Anastasio (from the song “Brian and Robert.”)

“MichaAngela is a longtime sponsor of the TEAs and I’m honored to have her as our first-year sponsor of Queer Prom,” said FHM Co-Founder Kristel Penn. “Like many of us in our community, MichaAngela understands the importance of cultivating a safe space to just be ourselves.”

The “Queer Prom: Come as You Are” is hosted by FHM and Grooby, who invite the trans adult community and allies “to celebrate the traditional prom milestone as their most authentic selves.” Tickets are $40 each and include one drink ticket with purchase. Proceeds from the event will be donated to charity.
