In this new two-part episode of “THEATER: All the Moving Parts” host Patrick Pacheco looks at why “Shucked,” is poised to be the sleeper of the season, powered by some of the best word-of-mouth in years. On the heels of its nine Tony nominations and one win (Alex Newell), Pacheco speaks with three of the nominees: writer Robert Horn, director Jack O’Brien, and actor Kevin Cahoon. In the second segment, Pacheco speaks with producer Mike Bosner about how he and a crack marketing team expertly steered the show, unbranding it from its roots as “The Hee Haw” musical and rebranding it as sophisticated family entertainment.
Pacheco says, “In the course of the interview, it became clear how ‘Shucked’ defied the odds: hire the funniest man in show business, Robert Horn, to write the book, add into the mix Jack O’Brien, who can base slapstick on truth, and cast the most able actors, including Kevin Cahoon, who has the deftness to sell even the corniest lines and groaners to a willing audience. I was also struck by the fact that nearly the entire creative of ‘Shucked,’ including songwriters Shane McAnally and Brandy Clark, were out and proud. As O’Brien noted, a gay sensibility infected the entire enterprise with wit, courage, and a positive energy.”
“THEATER: All the Moving Parts” is an hour-long CUNY TV show, featuring in-depth interviews with artists from every theatrical discipline. Recent episodes include the fascinating process of mounting such wildly different shows as “& Juliet”, with its pre-existing hit pop catalogue, the immersive “The Jungle”, and the epic drama, “Leopoldstadt”. Included in the latter was a comprehensive overview of the legacy of its writer, Tom Stoppard. The premiere episode of “THEATER: All the Moving Parts” was an interview with playwright Theresa Rebeck, which continues to collect thousands of views on You Tube. Of Pacheco, Rebeck said, “I felt like I was being interviewed by someone who knows me better than I know myself.” Go to tv.cuny.edu/theaterallthemovingparts to see these and other episodes.
