Rialto Chatter: Is MOONSHINE: THE HEE HAW MUSICAL On Track For Broadway?

The musical adaptation of the long-running television comedy, Hee Haw, could still be on the way to Broadway.

According to the New York Post, Moonshine: The Hee Haw Musical, which had its world premiere in 2015 at Dallas Theatre Center, hosted an industry reading this week in New York City.

With a book by recent Tony Award-winner Robert Horn (Tootsie), the Post writes that the reading attracted representatives from The Shubert Organization, Jujamcyn, and The Nederlander Organization.

Horn wrote to Post columnist, Michael Riedel: "The reading went really well, I think...It's still a laugh riot (I hope!), and come on, we all need to laugh right now."

The show features an original score by Grammy Best New Artist nominee Brandy Clark and Grammy Award winning songwriter/producer Shane McAnally (two of today's most critically acclaimed country music singer/songwriters).
