Shrek JR.

With music by Jeanine Tesori, book and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire, Shrek The Musical is based on the Oscar®-winning DreamWorks Animation film and the book Shrek by William Steig. The original Broadway production, starring Brian d'Arcy James as Shrek and Sutton Foster as Fiona, ran for twelve months and received a total of twelve Drama Desk Awards and eight Tony Award nominations, including Best Musical. The musical was adapted to be performed by students by the educational musical theatre consultancy firm iTheatrics under the supervision of Timothy Allen McDonald.

Join us for a hilarious, heartwarming adventure as our students bring Shrek JR. to life on stage! When Shrek’s quiet swamp is overrun by fairy-tale misfits, he sets off on a quest with his fast-talking friend Donkey to rescue Princess Fiona and reclaim his home. Along the way, he discovers that friendship, bravery, and self-acceptance can turn any fairy tale upside down.
