So, here are the hit shows from that period more than worthy of parody.
Schmigadoon!is to Broadway enthusiasts whatThe Lion Kingis to Disney adults.

(L-R) Kristin Chenoweth, Cecily Strong, Keegan-Michael Key and Alan Cumming in ‘Schmigadoon!’ Season 2 | Apple TV Plus
It took home eight, including Best Musical and Best Original Score.
It would also be quite entertaining to witness a version of Somewhere Thats Green and Dentist.
Its likely that Kirsten Chenoweth would be tasked with this one.

Tveit and who else?

Choosing which songs to parody inRentis an impossible feat.
The musical boasts the perfect balance of heartwrenching ballads and upbeat, fun-loving numbers.
Yet, it goes without saying that we need a full-cast rendition of La Vie Boheme inLes Schmiserables.

Can we somehow get Aaron Tveit or Ariana DeBose to sing a version of Scars Be Prepared?
They also wrote songs for The Coasters and collaborated with Ben E. King.
Alas, we can dream.
