Based on the Oscar® winning DreamWorks film, Shrek: The Musical brings the hilarious story of everyone's favorite ogre to life on the stage. In a faraway kingdom turned upside down, things get ugly when an unseemly ogre — not a handsome prince — shows up to rescue a feisty princess. Throw in a donkey who won't shut up, a bad guy with a SHORT temper, 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. Full of all-new songs, great dancing and hilarity, SHREK THE MUSICAL is part romance, part twisted fairy tale and all irreverent fun for everyone!
