Shucked comes to London for a strictly limited run - so pop those tickets in your basket and book today!

What is the musical Shucked about?

“Corn, yes, we said corn, just as sure as the day that you were born.”

This “farm-to-fable” tale tells the story of an isolated town, Cob County, whose residents rely on their wall of corn crops for independence and shelter from the world, and all share a love of - you guessed it - corn. But as young couple Maizy and Beau start planning their wedding, the town's corn unexpectedly begins to die. Determined to get to the bottom of the maize-tery - ahem, mystery - the townsfolk decide the wedding can’t go ahead until they’ve discovered what is causing so much corn-sternation. Against Beau’s wishes, Maizy decides to leave Cob County to find a solution, but out in the wide world there are temptations she’s never experienced before and unscrupulous characters… Will Maizy find a kernel of wisdom that can save Cob County, or discover that the corn is yellower on the other side of the field?

Jam-packed with “ear-worm melodies” (Variety) and “puns…dad jokes, double entendres and booby-trapped one-liners” (NY Times), Shucked delighted audiences on Broadway, snatching Tony, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Awards, as well as a Grammy nomination, before embarking on a US tour. UK audiences have long anticipated a London transfer, and this sweet, silly and downright corny show is the perfect serving of heartwarming escapism this summer.
