Once upon a time, there was a little green ogre named Shrek…

And so begins the heroic quest of everyone’s favorite green guy, and now his adventures with Donkey, Princess Fiona, Lord Farquaad, and Dragon are all-singing and all-dancing. The beloved DreamWorks animated film (inspired by William Steig’s book) is now one of the most popular musicals around and features an irresistible score by Jeanine Tesori and book and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire.

Join the SFArtsED Players in the Kingdom of Duloc along with the Gingerbread Man, Cinderella, Pinocchio and all the fairytale creatures as they let their freak flags fly!
