Schmigadoon! is a big, buoyant Broadway hit, with four Tony Awards to its name—including Best Musical. The spirited comedy follows a discontented couple who find themselves trapped in a quaint enclave where townspeople break out into song and dance. Shortly after the production’s Tony night victory, Schmigadoon! invited Broadway.com backstage to capture the cast before a matinee performance.
On our trip to the Nederlander Theatre, we got to see Isabelle McCalla’s silly putty antics, Ann Harada’s lucky seahorse and Sara Chase’s homemade Tony. Check out the full gallery for all of the Schmigtastic backstage photos!
