Oh, prom. It seems in today's culture, the most important event for every high school is prom. The night where there are seemingly no rules, where you get dressed up and party the night away--a teenage paradise!

This sound-rich piece takes a look at two high school proms using vox from the attendees. It's an interesting snapshot of prom, and focuses mostly on what the teens were wearing and what their after-prom plans were.

I really enjoyed getting to hear about the prom from the actual attending teens, and the vox was really interesting. However, I would have liked to hear about more than just fashion and party plans. Because prom is hyped by our culture to be such a perfect and amazing event, I would have been interested to hear the teens answers to questions such as "Is prom living up to your expectations?" or "Why did you come to prom and why is it important to you?" I like the original vox, I just think it could have been cut a little to make room for some other questions and answers.

That said, it's definitely a fun piece that would fit in any teen-themed show, especially in the spring. Thanks to Adrian Boyes and Manny Watson for putting this out there!
