Overview: Smash The Musical.

Smash is the musical inside a musical that once only lived on TV screens. Born from the NBC drama of the same name, it now steps out of the screen's glow and into the real Broadway spotlight. At its heart? A show-within-a-show: *Bombshell*, the dazzling biopic of Marilyn Monroe’s life, rise, ruin, and radiance.

Story Layers and Emotional Core.

The meta-theatrical plot follows the chaotic creation of *Bombshell*. Writers Julia and Tom, once inseparable collaborators, juggle personal meltdowns and professional stakes. Director Derek, ruthless and vision-obsessed, drives them toward artistic perfection. At the center of the chaos, two women battle for the role of Marilyn: Karen, the Iowa ingénue with a golden voice, and Ivy, the seasoned Broadway talent who bleeds ambition.

New Stage Life in 2024.

The stage adaptation of Smash the Musical premiered in 2024, helmed by Susan Stroman and produced by Steven Spielberg. It keeps the heart of the TV series but trims the fat. The focus shifts to the making of *Bombshell*—a Broadway show in flux. With new songs added and plotlines streamlined, the musical pulses with tighter pacing and deeper emotional arcs.
  • Jeremy Jordan plays Derek, oozing charm and darkness in equal measure.
  • Krysta Rodriguez stars as Ana, a reimagined role expanded for the stage.
  • New songs by Shaiman and Wittman include "Rewrite This Show" and "Something to Hold On To."

Visual Brilliance.

Scenic designer Beowulf Boritt captures backstage grit and onstage glamor. The musical blends realism and spectacle. Costumes flash between rehearsal sweats and vintage Monroe couture. The set spins—literally—between studio walls and spotlight-soaked dreams.
