Shucked

Shucked is a contemporary musical comedy that centers on a small, isolated town reliant on its corn crop, and what happens when that crop starts to mysteriously die. The story follows a young woman who ventures to the big city for help, encountering a quirky podiatrist and a series of misunderstandings. This production offers a blend of humor, heartland charm, and a score that leans into country and folk influences. This matinee performance of Shucked at the Lied Center in Lincoln provides an afternoon opportunity to see a show that has drawn attention for its original premise and witty script. It's a good fit for those who enjoy character-driven comedies and musicals that don't take themselves too seriously, offering a lighthearted escape with a touch of down-home storytelling.
