Shucked is a cornucopia of dad-jokes and relentless puns

Tonally, director Jack O’Brien’s production is completely and utterly committed to the bit, and how much you enjoy this particular bit will entirely determine how much you enjoy the show.

Review: MAMMA MIA! at Ed Mirvish Theatre

As well, some of the show’s content feels like a turn-of-the-century time capsule, such as when Sky tells Sophie, “you don’t need a father, you have me,” or the preponderance of numbers just this side of uncomfortable where one or several sexed-up characters chase down a rather reluctant love interest. On the other hand, the message to live life freely and go for what you want without shame holds up just fine from 1999.
