Shucked
A hilarious and audacious farm-to-fable musical about the one thing Americans everywhere can't get enough of: corn.
Why see Shucked?
We're all ears
As seen on Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade 2023
Winner of two Drama Desk Awards! The bright lights of Broadway meet Nashville's top songwriting talents in this brand new musical from Tony winner Robert Horn, in collaboration with Brandy Clark and Shane McAnally. After an a-maize-ing premiere at Utah's Pioneer Theatre Company in spring 2022, the heartwarming story offers a kernel of joy in these divided times, exploring how opening up to people and ideas we are wary of can be a beautiful process, uniting us in our similarities, not our differences. Aw Shucks!
Starring a plethora of musical theatre's finest, including John Behlmann, Kevin Cahoon, Andrew Durand, Caroline Innerbichler, Ashley D. Kelley, and Alex Newell, Shucked will be directed by multi-Tony winner Jack O'Brien and feature choreography by Sarah O'Gleby.
Set to be a delightful crowd-pleaser full of corny jokes, folksy storytelling, and an instant-classic soundtrack, don't miss your chance to reap the rewards of Shucked!
