The musical is based on the Apple Original series from Universal Television of the same name. New York doctors Josh and Melissa set out on a couples’ backpacking retreat to rekindle the flame, but instead find themselves in Schmigadoon, a magical town that’s a Golden Age musical come to life. The townspeople won’t stop singing, the bridge out leads nowhere, and the only way to escape is by finding true love—which may or may not be with each other. “Schmigadoon is a love letter to the Golden Age of movie musicals,” said producer Lorne Michaels. “It’s a little bit nostalgic and a lot of fun. We’re very excited to bring it to Broadway.”

6 / 10
If you respond to musical theater like a professor with a grading rubric, I can’t imagine you’d find fault with Schmigadoon! The show’s got love songs, patter songs, a few reprises, a soliloquy, and production numbers with hooky choruses guaranteed to stick in your head. There’s a big ensemble, elaborate costumes, a book that winks at every Rodgers and Hammerstein inconsistency that has ever bothered you, and, briefly, a dream ballet. It’s exuberant, clever, eager to please, dexterously devised, and yet, with all that technique behind it, it lands in a place that’s awfully unambitious. Why does a love letter to the classic musical make the project of musical theater feel so damn small?
'Schmigadoon!' Broadway review — a pitch-perfect satire of classic musicals
8 / 10
For lovers of Golden Age musicals like Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma! or Meredith Willson's The Music Man, getting trapped in one sounds like a dream. For others, who think spontaneously breaking into song and dance is odd, it might be a nightmare. This is the case for Melissa (Sara Chase) and Josh (Alex Brightman), who, during a couples retreat in the woods, accidentally find themselves in Schmigadoon, a musical come to life. Melissa is charmed, but Josh is annoyed. They soon discover you can’t exit Schmigadoon unless you’ve found true love, which only solidifies their romantic issues. Their only choice is to join the chorus and 5-6-7-8 their way through it. And of course they do, because it’s impossible not to get swept up in the joy and comedy of Schmigadoon!, for them and for us.
