A stage show based on the hit Apple TV+ musical comedy Schmigadoon! is heading to Broadway next April.

No casting for the theatrical production has been announced yet, but the TV version starred Cecily Strong, Keegan-Michael Key, Fred Armisen, Alan Cumming, Dove Cameron and Kristin Chenoweth.

Saturday Night Live boss Lorne Michaels is producing the musical, which features a book and score by Cinco Paul.

“New York doctors Josh and Melissa set out on a couples’ backpacking retreat to rekindle the flame, but instead find themselves in Schmigadoon, a magical town that’s a Golden Age musical come to life,” according to a synopsis posted on the Broadway show’s website.

“The townspeople won’t stop singing, the bridge out leads nowhere, and the only way to escape is by finding true love — which may or may not be with each other.”
