"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.
Based 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.
