"A Big, Bright, Beautiful World Premiere!"

SHREK THE MUSICAL

This summer, the most beloved swamp-dwelling ogre of all time will make his theatrical debut in the World Premiere of SHREK THE MUSICAL, at The 5th Avenue Theatre. This all-new production is based on Shrek’s adventures in the classic William Steig book and Oscar-winning film. Joining Shrek on his journey from the swamp to the stage will be his wisecracking sidekick Donkey, Princess Fiona, Lord Farquaad and a chorus of everybody’s favorite fairytale creatures. With more layers than ever and a completely original new score, SHREK THE MUSICAL proves there’s more to the story than meets the ears.

Book and Lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire
