The acclaimed AppleTV series turned Broadway smash Schmigadoon! has won the 2026 Tony Award for Best Musical!

The production was nominated for an impressive 12 awards this year, and earned two for writer Cinco Paul's book, music, and lyrics.

Everybody has a song for everything, the corn is as high as an elephant’s eye, and the only bridge out of town leads nowhere. Melissa and Josh soon discover the only way to escape is by finding true love—which may or may not be with each other.

The musical also stars Saturday Night Live alum Ana Gasteyer as Mildred Layton, Ann Harada reprising her role of Florence Menlove, Tony Award-nominee Brad Oscar as Mayor Menlove, Isabelle McCalla as Emma Tate, Ivan Hernandez as Doc, Maulik Pancholy as The Reverend, Max Clayton as Danny Bailey , McKenzie Kurtz as Betsy and Ayaan Diop as Carson.
