Let’s hear those closing night reports, peeps!

I saw pictures of the video marquee going out with a bang and in a very Shucked fashion, with messages like “FINAL PERFORMANCE JUST HAPPENED” and “YOU SHUCKING MISSED IT.”

Someone posted on Reddit that a curtain announcement was made that SHUCKED will be receiving a feature film adaptation.

I am SO ON BOARD with this!!

I hope they use as much of the OBC as possible. And also get Reba.

I wouldn't expect many members of the original cast involved, but this is potentially great news IF it actually comes together. Many a movie-musical has been announced and never produced.

I'll have more belief in it once we know a director and a studio partner.

I hope this is true! Are any of the OBC actors famous enough to be in the movie version? Sadly I can see this going to Dove Cameron (who is very talented) or someone else from Schmigadoon.

Alex's final INDEPENDENTLY OWNED is out there to listen to.

Just heard it. Kinda glad I was at the second preview. Alex hit every note as clear as a bell and didn't lower any as he does in this final performance. There wasn't as much "growling" so to speak. It was good, but prefer the performance I saw more. JMO

For the film? It doesn't even have a director announced yet! And no studio either (unless Peter Guber is planning finance it as an independent production). First things first.

I’m wandering if they will try a run off broadway. Maybe at stage 42 or new world stages.
