NYC After Prom
The club list
After Prom at Avalon
Your older siblings might have come to this converted cathedral way back in the nineties when it was called Limelight. This club received a mega makeover, complete with neon lights, a booming sound system, backlit bars, and plenty of VIP rooms. Avalon attracts an outer-borough crowd that dances to house and trance music pumping through the dance floor and side lounge, a.k.a. "The Chapel."
• 660 Sixth Ave., at 20th St., 212-807-778
After Prom at Crane Club
According to the A-Group at Horace Mann, Marymount, and Dalton, this former nightspot-turned-private club on the Upper West Side is the place to hold your afterprom. Crane comes with a huge dance floor and bar in the back and a more intimate side lounge with tables and banquettes for those seniors who haven't quite perfected their dance moves.
• 408 Amsterdam Ave., between 79th and 80th Sts., 212-877-3097
After Prom at Heaven
Switch partners at this young gay haven. Three floors (named heaven, hell, and purgatory) mean three chances to see young, fit, and shirtless boys and sometimes even girls dancing to bubblegum pop and retro dance hits. There's a different theme every night (Latin Wednesdays, Lesbian Fridays), but Heaven's most fabulous fete is its Saturday night, 18-and-up "Gay College Party" that could easily double as a listening session for every Britney Spears CD made.
• 579 Sixth Ave., between 16th and 17th Sts., 212-243-6100
If you're not dancing at the prom, there's no way you're dancing at the after prom party so your best bet is to go to a comedy club.
Comic Strip Live
Sharing laughs can be just as intimate as sharing a slow dance—and your palms won't end up as sweaty, either. Credited as the birth place of such famous comedians as Jerry Seinfeld, Chris Rock, Dave Attell, and Eddie Murphy, these days you're more likely to catch an up-and-comer at Comic Strip Live who provides witty one-liners on a VH1 special. The Strip's "Limo to Laughter" prom package includes a commemorative Playbill, free food, and unlimited soda and juice. And if you think you've got the chops to entertain, you can enter the "Funniest Grad" contest for more freebies and a video tape of your performance.
• 1568 Second Ave., between 81st and 82nd Sts., 212-861-9386

When you're finally ready to kick off your dancing shoes, board the complimentary cruise ship that sails around the New York City harbor during sun rise while you refuel and recap over a full continental breakfast.
