It was announced this week that Playbill will be streaming Broadway’s 2017 musical Bandstand as part of their new series, Playbill Playback. This Tony Award-winning musical will be available to stream for $6.99 on April 10 at 8 p.m. ET to April 17 at 11:59 p.m. ET, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting The Actor Fund. The purchase will last 72 hours and include the full production as well as a new interview conducted by Ruthie Fierberg from Playbill, with Corey Cott, Laura Osnes, Beth Leavel, director-choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler, and co-creators Richard Oberacker and Robert Taylor.

Here is what’s in store when you watch this poignant and inspiring musical:

It’s 1945. As America’s soldiers come home to ticker-tape parades and overjoyed families, Private First Class Donny Novitski, singer and songwriter, struggles to rebuild the life he left behind. When NBC announces a national competition to find the nation’s next great musical superstars, Donny sees a lifeline for himself and some fellow veterans that gives them the purpose they so desperately need. Together, they form a band unlike any the nation has ever seen. Along the way, they discover the power of music to face the impossible, find their voice, and finally feel like they have a place to call home.”
