What Is Shucked About
SHUCKED is the Tony Award®-winning musical comedy about an unlikely hero, a lovable con man, and an a-maize-ing battle for the heart & soil of Cob County. Maizy and Beau are getting hitched, when the corn that protects their small community starts to die. The town needs answers. But who will dare to venture beyond the borders of Cob County?
Including the knockout songs, “Woman of the World,” “Somebody Will,” and “Independently Owned,” this Broadway hit about an unlikely hero, an unscrupulous con artist, and a battle for the heart and soil of a small town is not to be missed.
