New Broadway Musical: Shucked

Music by gays Shane McAnally and Brandy Clark and starring Alex Newall. Will gays support this new show that is getting good reviews for humor and music, or trash it? McAnally. Heh heh heh heh. I love how OP needs to mention that the music for this Broadway musical is by a pair of 'Mo's.

It's not a troll post, it is the buzziest new musical on Broadway and people here like to talk about Broadway. Duh.

Alex singing the "showstopper."

Was it really necessary to start an entire thread on a show that will be hemorrhaging money and closing in short order? Take this shit over to the Theatre Gossip threads so we can talk about something that really matter - like FOLLIES.

John Behlmann will be hemorrhaging when I'm through with him.

I love Alex Newall. The only positive thing to come out of Glee.

R13, I only spell check if I'm getting paid to do it. But since you mention it, sentences don't end in commas. FYI.

Saw this tonight. Absolute fucking garbage. 2 hours of shitty PG 13 one liners with some musical numbers. The plot is thinner than a 90 year old's skin. I wanted to walk out at the interval but my bf was adamant we stay.

Watching Shucked reminded me of visiting my grandma in a nursing home when I was 10, and being forced to watch whatever was playing on the TV in the community room.

I love the theatre, but Shucked looks dreadful.

I will say the audience....which was mostly out of towners and 40 something fraus were lapping it up. But Christ it was so bad. Christmas cracker jokes over and over. Scheisse Minelli.

I was inclined to believe y’all but after I googled I learned the musical score 9 Tony nominations. The Tonys doesn’t kiss ass like other award shows. Meanwhile y’all said that Lea Michele’s Funny Girl was actually good and it received 0 nominations. I’m not saying y’all are wrong but DL’s majority opinion must now be taken with a grain of salt.

Funny Girl was last year, R19.

I'm just sad Ms. Carol Channing isn't here for this.

Really? Is it playing in the West End?

Hmm, a hit. You mean we don't have to have shows in which the main characters spend the entire musical moaning about how oppressed they are? A show that's funny and entertaining? What an imaginative new concept.

Three cast members said, " Fuck the audience" and didn't show up for the performance on Wed.:

Three stars of the Broadway show Shucked bailed on the performance on Wednesday night amid wildfire smog chaos - forcing a writer and composer to step in to save the day.

The new musical, which is nominated for nine Tony Awards including Best Musical, saw both play the female lead Maizy after the regular actor and her two understudies called out.

Robert Horn, who wrote the book that the musical is based on, read the main female character's dialogue. And Brandy Clark, the musical's composer, came on to sing the character's songs.

Did he ever come out as gay?

He was so hot in those Dairy Queen commercials!

John Behlmann is straight with spawn.

But one day he will be mine.

He's like an AI-generated "cute guy" avatar.
