Folks say that things happen for a reason. I say Shucked happened for a reason. The great deities of musical theatre knew we were about to be living in the dark ages and the great deities of musical theatre knew we would need something whole-kernel-wholesome with literally a laugh-a-minute to lift us up out of the darkness and bring us into the radiant brightâ cornfield!? Who in tarnation knew that we so desperately needed a musicalâ about CORN!?
Hear about a partyâ hereâs the procedure:
Text all your friendsâ tell âem where to meet you!
At The National Theater in DC to welcome (back) the tour of Mean Girls! Thatâs so FETCH. NETworks is touring the cautionary tale this time around, bringing the iconic film-come-musical full-circle as it launched itâs pre-Broadway debut at The National in 2017. Directed (on tour) by Casey Hushion with musical supervision by Mary-Mitchell Campbell and touring choreography by John MacInnis,
Is anybody there? Does anybody care? That certainly seems to echo the sentiments of our country at present where large groups of people are concerned. When the Founding Fathers of this infantile country set out to free themselves from the tyranny of King George and the mighty English Empire⌠well, what weâve got here in 2023? Iâm sure they never could have dreamed of this. The story is history, that much is true.
Is butter a carb? Yes? Grool. I meanâ thatâs SO FETCH! (never stop trying to make FETCH happen!) And now you donât have to! Now all you have to do is get your tickets to see Mean Girls on the national tour as it sweeps through Baltimore for a one-week engagement at The Hippodrome. Based on the iconic screen-gem with book by Tina Fey, Music by Jeff Richmond, and Lyrics by Nell Benjamin,
By conventional expectations of what constitutes a smash musical, The Bandâs Visit shouldn’t be a success, and yet it is. It has, of course, won numerous Tony awards in the 2017-18 Season, and after seeing the production at the Kennedy Center, we can understand why it is well loved.Â
The musical begins with the same words that opened the 2007 Isreali movie that inspired it: âNot so long ago, a group of musicians came to Israel from Egypt.
Welcome to High School! Get in, losersâ weâre going to The Kennedy Center! Because their production of Mean Girls the musical, Directed and Choreographed by Casey Nicholaw is just so FETCH! And they are absolutely making FETCH happen!!! Based on the Paramount Pictures film from 2004 with book by Tina Fey, music by Jeff Richmond, and lyrics by Nell Benjamin, this high-octane, high-quality Broadway musical is a trip down memory lane for some and a totally relevant look at the uncivilized jungle that is American public high school.
Whatâs inside? Everyone wants to know! Itâs musical theatre at its finest; simple things like sugar, butter, flour now on stage in the form of the critically-acclaimed, award-winning production of Waitress. With book by Jessie Nelson (based upon the motion picture written by Adrienne Shelly) and music & lyrics by Sara Bareilles, this âslice of lifeâ musical chronicles the story of Jenna, a small-town diner waitress in a miserable marriage with an unexpected surprise on the way.
Once, not long ago, a group of musicians came from Broadway
to The Kennedy Centerâ but you will hear about this as it is pretty important.
The Tony Award-winning musical The Bandâs Visit comes to the Eisenhower
Theatre of The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts this summer, with
Music and Lyrics by David Yazbek and Book by Itamar Moses, the poignant and
striking tale of two cultures meeting by mistake is brilliant and relevant in
todayâs ever-changing,

Literally finding Neverland
entails locating the second star to the right and continuing straight till
morning. Fortunately, a significantly easier path to Finding Neverland entails only a brief 75-minute jaunt to the
National Theatre in Washington, DC where the current NETworks national tour is
camped out for a swashbuckling week of family friendly entertainment.
Sugar.
Butter.
Flour.
A recipe for perfectionâ thatâs whatâs cooking up at The National Theatre in Washington DC as the national tour of Waitress makes stops over in the nationâs capital for a three-week engagement. The Broadway sensation that was inspired by the film, written by Adrienne Shelly, has arrivedâ featuring book by Jessie Nelson and music & lyrics by Sara Bareilles.
Welcome to The Nationalâ where every show is for youâ and this is new! Yes, welcome to The Nationalâ where theyâve got Something Rotten! And itâs outrageous, fantastic, and downright fun. Directed and Choreographed by Casey Nicholaw, with Music & Lyrics by Wayne Kirkpatrick and Karey Kirkpatrick, and Book by Karey Kirkpatrick and John OâFarrell, this razzle-dazzle, hilariously side-splitting musical is great for everyone who loves theatres. Itâs even greater if you like Shakespeare.
Ding Dong! Hello! My name is Elder Gunther and I would like to share with youâ the most amazing musical. Ding Dong! Hello!

Something Rotten! in the state of Maryland! Itâs not politics! Itâs not corruption! Itâs a bloody, bleeding musical! What the hellâs a musical? Well, it appears to be a play where the dialogue stops and the plot is conveyed through song! Charm City be praised! This brand new thingâ this âmusicalââ is coming directly to Baltimoreâs France-Merrick Performing Arts Center and settling down at The Hippodrome Theatre. Why, direct from its smashing success on The Great White Way,
