Get ready for a hilarious musical adventure! The beloved TV series Schmigadoon! is making its way to Broadway, and the star-studded cast is sure to delight audiences. But wait, there's a twist! Ana Gasteyer, the comedic genius from Saturday Night Live, is joining the fun, and her role is bound to be a scene-stealer.
A star-studded ensemble
The production has just announced its full cast, and it's a doozy! Alongside Gasteyer, the show welcomes Alex Brightman and Sara Chase as the leads. But that's not all; the ensemble is packed with Broadway veterans and newcomers alike. Ann Harada, Brad Oscar, Isabelle McCalla, and the talented Ayaan Diop, making their Broadway debut, are just a few names to look out for.
A magical town comes to life
Schmigadoon is a whimsical town where the residents can't stop singing, and true love is the key to escape. Brightman and Chase play a couple who stumble upon this peculiar place, and their journey is filled with laughter and romance. But here's where it gets controversial: Gasteyer's character, Mildred Layton, is a nosy, morally upright woman, adding a unique dynamic to the story.
A hilarious and heartfelt journey
The show promises to be a delightful mix of comedy and heartwarming moments. With a stellar creative team, including Emmy Award-winning songwriter Cinco Paul and Tony Award-winning director Christopher Gattelli, the production is in good hands. And let's not forget the producers, including the legendary Lorne Michaels, ensuring a top-notch experience.
