SHREK THE MUSICALOnce upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek...." And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists her rescue. Throw in a short-tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there's one on hand... and his name is Shrek. Shrek is filled with dozens of fun characters, puppets, dancing, and singing. Irreverently fun for the whole family, Shrek proves that beauty is truly in the eye of the ogre.
Shrek is Rated "G" by the Music Theatre International Corporation. performances
