About Smash

Smash, inspired by the hit TV show, is finally coming to Broadway! A hilarious behind-the-scenes rollercoaster ride about the making of a Marilyn Monroe musical called Bombshell, it’s got all the iconic songs, kick-ass choreography, and backstage pandemonium that make Broadway the beloved institution it is today.

Our cast is stacked, because who better to play a bunch of wannabe Broadway big shots than actual Broadway big shots? Among them: Robyn Hurder, Brooks Ashmanskas, Krysta Rodriguez, Bella Coppola, Jacqueline Arnold, Caroline Bowman, John Behlmann, Kristine Nielsen and Casey Garvin to name just a few.

The production will also be helmed by five-time Tony Award® winner Susan Stroman, and feature a score by Tony, Emmy®, and Grammy Award®-winning duo Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, who wrote over two dozen songs for the television show (many of which will be heard in the musical), a book by Rick Elice and Bob Martin (Tony winner), and choreography by Joshua Bergasse.

Ok
"My husband and i thought this was ok. We had hoped there would be a little ‘tear-jerking’ moment to balance out the comedy and singing. Cast was talented but the music was just ok.. "

Needs Work
"The Book is a mess, especially in Act One. The Acting Teacher grinds everything to a halt, her first scene is twice the length it needs to be. Act Two is much better. A few good songs from S & W. Actors all very good, as usual."

Never got off the ground despite an enthusiastic cast.
"If you were a follower/fan of the TV show, no doubt you enjoyed the songs and strong vocal performances. I found the story disjointed and flat. Awkward moments when laughs fell flat and times the audience laughed when clearly they weren’t meant to. It seemed long (not a good sign!) and by the end some of the audience were filing out before the final bow. The storyline was just confusing and choppy. Characters you didn’t care about or connect with. Again fans of the show will probably love it."
