“Nashville” the TV Show is Being Made into a Broadway Play!

Ou this is exciting, and makes perfect sense.  The best Broadway shows are dramatic and have amazing music, which is exactly what Nashville has!

Here is more info:

“Nashville, with its complex, relatable characters and sweeping emotional gestures, has all of the narrative elements that I look for in great theatrical source material. From that rich DNA, we will be building an original story with entirely original music written by major Nashville and Broadway songwriters,” says Delman. “We are particularly excited to deliver Broadway’s first score of true contemporary country music — a genre that has exploded with mainstream audiences in recent years."

As a refresher, Nashville premiered on ABC in 2012 for four seasons.  After ABC cancelled it, CMT picked it up and it ran for two more seasons, but was ultimately was cancelled, and the series finale was July 2018.
