She adds that "Bombshell plays like a true original cast recording, tracing the show's plot in its liner notes and separating its songs into acts".

She sums up the faux cast recording by saying, "even if Bombshell isn't a real Broadway musical, it hits all the notes a production like this should, and showcases the most appealing parts of Smash in the process".

Exactly what you would expect from a musical based on the life of Marilyn Monroe and her professional and personal triumphs and pitfalls".

The score ranges from a string accompaniment to a jazzy sax number, and sounds akin to the classic Broadway style of music.

With the perfect combination of new songs and fan favorites, like “History Is Made at Night,” Bombshell will leave you begging for the show to come to Broadway.

"[12] Daphne Miller of Idolator said, "Shaiman and Wittman clearly know what they're doing and the references to Monroe's life are amusing, but as a story told through music, Bombshell simply doesn’t stand up on its own."
