Day #3 Of Cast In Rehearsal For SMASH Reunion BOMBSHELL Actors Fund Concert

BOMBSHELL is on Broadway!

NBC's musical dramedy series SMASH ended after two seasons earlier this decade, but the Broadway-centric series will feature in a new reunion concert set to highlight material from the musical-within-the-series BOMBSHELL, inspired by the life of Marilyn Monroe, on June 8 at a star-studded concert announced several weeks ago when the Kickstarter campaign racked up a grand total of $318,120.

A first look at the cast in rehearsal for the event with working beginning this week is now available to view along with a Day #3 pic posted today.

Composer Marc Shaiman shared a shot from rehearsals, writing, "day #3 of The Joshua Bergasse Dancing Machine".
