Out of the Box Theatrics announced its 2026-2027 season, including industry presentations of DINO NUGGETS ARE GAY and THE WORLD'S CASSETTE LIBRARY as part of its 'Building the Box' series, plus a new development initiative called 'World Builders.'
Though the show is (intentionally) corny, there's a lot of heart and humor in this new country musical.
Ensemble Arts Philly and The Shubert Organization will present the Philadelphia premiere of Shucked at the Forrest Theatre from April 21 through May 3, 2026.
At first glance, Shucked doesn’t seem like a show that should work. A Broadway musical about corn, packed with puns and country music, sounds like it might wear thin fast. But during its stop at the Orpheum Theatre, this touring production proves that beneath the dad jokes and folksy charm is a surprisingly smart and generous piece of musical theatre.
Only on Broadway can a show this proudly preposterous, this shamelessly corny, sneak up on the skeptics and knock the wind out of them. SHUCKED, the goofy little musical that could, arrives at ASU Gammage in Tempe like a hayride crashing into a punch bowl.
Filled with a seemingly non-stop parade of awww-shucks delivered puns—of both super naughty and super corny varieties—the show, for lack of a more eloquent description, is so frikkin silly and stupid in the best possible ways a comedy can get. Mind you, this isn't an insult at all—the show is so unapologetically and purposely silly, that the whole thing actually feels like savvy (and sassy) comedic gold, albeit the broad and dorky kind that audiences of all kinds will likely adore and appreciate. Unexpectedly weird in the most winning ways, SHUCKED had me laughing heartily at all of its strange, admirably sustained shenanigans and down-home humor, never once wavering from its 'corny' (haha) machinations not even for a millisecond. The show's rather enjoyable national tour production continues performances at OC's Segerstrom Center for the Arts through November 23, 2025.
Dear Readers, I want to talk to you about somewhat under the radar shows, and corn. Not all shows have that name recognition or known songs. Sometimes these new story, original musical gems come along, and they need some of your time and attention. One such show is “Shucked” currently playing at the Paramount. With a subject matter that might make some go “huh?” it could pass you by. Don’t let it!
In times like these, sometimes you just need to turn off your brain and laugh. That's exactly what the national tour of the musical comedy SHUCKED delivers – a few hours of unapologetically silly, pun-saturated fun.
