\nBased on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film\, \;Shrek The Musical \;is a Tony Award-winning fairy tale adventure\, featuring all new songs from Jeanine Tesori (Thoroughly Modern Millie\; Caroline\, or Change) and a sidesplitting book by David Lindsay-Abaire. \;Shrek \;brings all the beloved characters you know from the film to life on stage and proves there'\;s more to the story than meets the ears.
"\;Once 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.
\n\nShrek \;presents a treasure trove of creative opportunities\, including costumes\, sets\, puppets (there is a fire-breathing dragon after all) and more! Irreverently fun for the whole family\, \;Shrek \;proves that beauty is truly in the eye of the ogre.
