The Smith Center in Las Vegas announced its upcoming season lineup, including Broadway productions SHUCKED and Alicia Keys' HELL'S KITCHEN, plus concerts from Natalia Lafourcade, Boney James, and others.
Though the show is (intentionally) corny, there's a lot of heart and humor in this new country musical.
Originally conceived as an adaptation of the long‑running TV variety show Hee Haw, Shucked popped into the Ohio Theatre on Tuesday night packed with deliciously corny puns, ear-to-ear smiles, and rapid‑fire one‑liners. What begins as a wink‑and‑nod celebration of pun‑loving humor quickly reveals itself as a genuinely heartfelt Broadway musical with a sweet love story, toe‑tapping songs, and a whole lot of heart. Set in Cobb County, this Southern‑fried tale boasts a sharp book by Tony Award winner Robert Horn (Tootsie), toe‑tapping music from Grammy winners Brandy Clark and Shane McAnally, and expert direction by Tony Award winner Jack O’Brien (Hairspray).

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.

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!
