Out of all the shows Apple TV+ has ever canceled, Schmigadoon! likely ranks near the top in loyal fan following. The series was canceled after two seasons (both of which I highly recommend), but now it’s coming back soon as a Broadway musical.

Schmigadoon! is coming to Broadway in spring 2026

Schmigadoon! was very much created to appeal to Broadway lovers, and now Broadway is giving it a fresh opportunity to shine.

Following a very brief run at the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. earlier this year, the stage adaptation of Schmigadoon! is officially coming to Broadway in spring 2026.

Greg Evans writes at Deadline:

Produced by Lorne Michaels and No Guarantees Productions, the musical will begin previews at the Nederlander Theatre on Saturday, April 4 with an opening night set for Monday, April 20 and will run through Sunday, September 6.

“Schmigadoon is a love letter to the Golden Age of movie musicals,” said producer Michaels. “It’s a little bit nostalgic and a lot of fun. We’re very excited to bring it to Broadway.”

The showrunner of the Apple TV+ series, Cinco Paul, is also behind the Schmigadoon! stage version.

Paul has previously said that Schmigadoon! season 3 is already written, and could potentially still be made one day. Perhaps if the Broadway musical becomes a success, Apple TV+ will bring the series back for an encore season.

The stage version of Schmigadoon! is based on season 1 of the Apple TV+ series, but includes some new songs as well.

If you want to receive the first info on pre-sales for tickets, you can sign up for an email list on the show’s website. And to check out Schmigadoon! on Apple TV+, you can watch its two seasons here.

Are you interested in seeing Schmigadoon! when it hits Broadway? Would you watch a new season on Apple TV+? Let us know in the comments.

Apple TV+ is available for $12.99 per month and features hit TV shows and movies like Ted Lasso, Severance, The Morning Show, Silo, and Shrinking.
