‘Smash’ Exclusive First Look: NBC’s Cult Favorite Hits Broadway With ‘So Many Twists, Turns and Surprises’
Variety has the official first look at 'Smash,' the TV cult favorite turned Broadway musical.
It, of course, refers to “Bombshell,” the fictional musical-within-a-musical at the center of “Smash,” a new stage adaptation of the beloved cult favorite, much hate-watched TV series that ran for two seasons on NBC from 2012-2013. Robyn Huder, a 20-year Broadway veteran and Tony nominee from “Moulin Rouge,” leads the musical as Ivy Lynn (the character played by Megan Hilty on screen). Krysta Rodriguez (“Spring Awakening,” “Into the Woods”) and John Behlmann (“Shucked,” “Tootsie”) are playing the “Bombshell” songwriters and book writers Tracy and Jerry; Kristine Nielsen (“Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike”) is portraying acting-coach Susan; Jacqueline B. Arnold (“Moulin Rouge”) is a producer named Anita; Bella Coppola (“Six”) will be the assistant choreographer Chloe; and Caroline Bowman (“Frozen” tour) and Casey Garvin (“Some Like It Hot”) are “Bombshell” ensemble members Karen and Charlie.
