ABOUT THE SHOW
Based on the beloved movie, "SHREK THE MUSICAL" follows the grumpy ogre SHREK, whose swamp is invaded by banished fairy tale creatures, leading him to make a deal with the tyrannical Lord Farquaad to get his home back.
SHREK must rescue Princess Fiona from a dragon-guarded tower for Farquaad, but along the way, he and his wisecracking donkey companion, Donkey, develop their own sense of friendship and love, uncovering a story about acceptance, finding your voice, and embracing differences.
