First Look At 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, later this year 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.

Jessica Lee Goldyn utilized social media to share a group pic of herself along with the chorus corps earlier today, writing, "First day of rehearsal for Bombshell on Broadway! A pleasure to stand in for Meghan Hilty & Katherine McPhee this week! #Bombshell #NationalPastTime - with Keith Kuhl, Paul McGill, Eric Stretch, Colin Bradbury, Tyrone Jackson, Reed Kelly, Michael McArthur and Marty Lawson at New 42nd Street Studios and The Duke on 42nd Street."
