NBC dropped the curtain on "Smash" back in 2013, but the in-show musical "Bombshell" will see its songs performed one more time.
Producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron ("Peter Pan Live! and "The Sound of Music Live!") will stage a one-night special benefit concert for The Actors Fund on Monday, June 15, according to E! News. A cast and venue has yet to be announced. Tickets will go on sale in early 2015.
"Smash" composers Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman wrote 22 original songs for the "Bombshell" musical about Marilyn Monroe. "Let Me Be Your Star" and "Hang the Moon" both received Emmy nominations, and the former also picked up a Grammy nomination in 2013.
"Smash" stars Jeremy Jordan, Krysta Rodriguez and Andy Mientus performed songs from "Hit List," the other musical created for the show and introduced in season two, at 54 Below in December 2013, according to E! News.
Megan Hilty and Katharine McPhee competed for the leading role of Marilyn on the short-lived series. "Smash" also starred Debra Messing, Christian Borle, Angelica Huston, Jack Davenport and Leslie Odom Jr.
The Actors Fund is a non-profit organization that benefits all professionals in the performing arts and entertainment industry through programs that address their unique and essential needs, according to its website.
