SYNOPSIS:
Featuring Alia Shawkat ("Arrested Development") and Raviv Ullman
("Phil of the Future"), Prom Wars is a hilarious teen comedy that
tells the story of a fierce competition between two warring boys
schools pitted against each other in a battle for the most elusive
high school prize of all: a prom date with the girls from ACS – the
hottest, most brilliant and sought-after senior class of private
schoolgirls in the Easthill vicinity. |

When sharp-witted high school knockout Diana Riggs (Shawkat) comes to
the realization that she is either being taken for granted,
objectified or disrespected by the boys in her life – notably Percy
Collins (Ullman), her soon-to-be ex-boyfriend, as well as his personal
nemesis, the über-rich Geoffrey Atridge – she decides to turn things
around: in the name of all high school girls who've had to suffer the
unacceptable injustices instigated by teenage boys, she calls upon her
team of gorgeous ACS prefects and provokes a war between the Selby
private school for boys and their Lancaster rivals. The winner in a
series of designated competitions will be awarded exclusive rights to
the girls as prom dates. |
