Schmigadoon Season 2 - "Schmicago" Catching Up with The Cast and Creator Cinco Paul
/
Attention all lovers of musical theatre! One of the greatest musical series ever made is back for a Second Season. Welcome to, Schmicago.
Anyone who knows me, knows how much of a musical theatre geek I am. I was truly obsessed when Apple TV+ released Schmigadoon starring an all star (and mostly Broadway veterans) cast.
Well the sensational cast is back, once again led by Cicely Strong and Keegan Michael Key for Season 2, and this time they find themselves in, Schmicago.
The second season of “Schmigadoon!,” the Emmy and AFI Award winning, hit musical comedy series from co-creator Cinco Paul, is back for season two with six new episodes featuring all new original songs and guest stars.
Having found true love in the town of Schmigadoon, season two of “Schmigadoon!” will find Josh (Keegan-Michael Key) and Melissa (Cecily Strong) in Schmicago, the reimagined world of ’60s and ’70s musicals. T
he second season of Apple’s broadly acclaimed comedy will include new original musical numbers from co-creator and executive producer Cinco Paul, as well as returning stars Cecily Strong, Keegan-Michael Key, Ariana DeBose, Martin Short, Dove Cameron, Jaime Camil, Kristin Chenoweth, Alan Cumming, Ann Harada, Jane Krakowski, and Aaron Tveit are back with Tituss Burgess and Patrick Page joining the cast for season two.
“Schmigadoon!” is co-created by Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio, and produced by Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group and Broadway Video. Paul serves as showrunner and wrote all of the original songs for the series. Lorne Michaels is executive producer.
"Schmigadoon!” returns for season two on Friday, April 7.
I was beyond thrilled to have the opportunity to speak with most of the cast and creator Cinco Paul about coming back for a second season. All I have to say is, there better be a third!!
