Shucked is the hilarious new musical fable about an unlikely hero and an unforgettable battle for the heart and soil of a small town.
For generations, the good people of Cob County have lived in relative obscurity, separated from the outside world by rows and rows of corn and bound together by their love of the land, each other, and, did we mention, corn? But when their tightly knit community is threatened with extinction, someone has to step up and step out to save their way of life.
Featuring a book by Tony Award winner Robert Horn (
Tootsie), a score by Grammy Award winners Shane McAnally and Brandy Clark and directed by Tony Award winner by Jack O’Brien (
Hairspray), this corn-fed, corn-bred American musical comes to Broadway with a bushel full of laughs, a crop of great songs, and more than a few kernels of wisdom.
