Shucked is a Tony Award-winning musical comedy that promises to satisfy your appetite with its corn-fed, corn-bred American charm. Featuring songs like ‘Woman of the World’, ‘Somebody Will’, and ‘Independently Owned’, this Broadway hit tells the story of Maizy and Beau, who are getting hitched just as the corn protecting their community starts to die. The town needs answers, and someone must venture beyond Cob County’s borders.
