The acclaimed production, which concluded its limited run at Atlantic on October 5, began its off-Broadway engagement at New World Stage on November 1.

A musical parody that charts the career of eternally up-and-coming and fictitious musical theater composer Jacob Sterling Pittu, What’s That Smell provides a rare, up-close-and-personal visit with an artist of questionable gifts who performs from his songbook and shares his human struggle to keep musical theater alive and well into the 21st century.
What’s That Smell features scenic design by Takeshi Kata, costume design by Martin Pakledinaz, lighting design by Matthew Richards, sound design by Jill DuBoff and projection design by Dustin O’Neill. The off-Broadway transfer is produced by Daryl Roth in association with Atlantic Theater Company.
