Sydney rumoured to get SHUCKED in 2026!
A recent comment in a New York Times article suggests that Shucked, a Broadway sensation, will to be making its way to Sydney in 2026. This exciting development comes on the heels of the show’s highly anticipated North American tour and its forthcoming debut in London in 2025.
Shucked is a heartwarming and unconventional musical that takes place in the charming town of Cob County, a place deeply devoted to its beloved crop, corn. The story revolves around Maizy and Beau, a young couple planning their wedding against the backdrop of the town’s profound love for corn. The musical’s plot takes a series of unexpected turns as Maizy and Gordy’s lives become entwined.
The recent Broadway production received widespread acclaim, including an astounding nine nominations at the 76th Tony Awards. Leading performer Alex Newell made history with their win (Best Featured Actor in a Musical), making them one of the first openly non-binary performers to be awarded in the category.
We’re all ears for this exciting Shucked news, and keenly await an official announcement.
