Inspired by the hit TV series, SMASH is produced by Robert Greenblatt, Neil Meron, and Steven Spielberg and is the perfect musical-lover’s musical. Get ready for all the backstage pandemonium as opening night approaches for Bombshell, the splashy new show about Marilyn Monroe. Nearly breaking under the pressure, legendary Broadway star Ivy Lynn causes a series of hilarious setbacks and surprises that brings a diva director, a bewildered producer, two exasperated authors, one eager understudy, and an entire company to its knees. But the curtain’s going up, no matter what!

SMASH is filled with kick-ass production numbers and iconic songs like “Let Me Be Your Star,” “Don’t Forget Me”, “They Just Keep Moving the Line,” and more. And who better to play Broadway A-listers than actual Broadway A-listers? The cast is stacked with veterans and Tony Award® nominees including Robyn Hurder, Brooks Ashmanskas, Krysta Rodriguez, John Behlmann, Kristine Nielsen, and Jacqueline B. Arnold, to name just a few.

SMASH is helmed by five-time Tony winner Susan Stroman (The Producers), with a score by Emmy®-, Grammy®-, and Tony-winners Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman (Hairspray, Some Like It Hot), a book by Bob Martin (Tony winner).

Performances at Broadway’s Imperial Theatre, 249 W 4th St., NYC. Tickets are on sale now. For more information, please click here
