Set in a mythical “once upon a time” sort of land, Shrek the Musical is the story of a hulking green ogre who, after being mocked and feared his entire life by anything that crosses his path, retreats to an ugly green swamp to exist in happy isolation. Suddenly, a gang of homeless fairy-tale characters (Pinocchio, Cinderella, the Three Pigs, you name it) raid his sanctuary, saying they’ve been evicted by the vertically challenged Lord Farquaad. So Shrek strikes a deal: I’ll get your homes back, if you give me my home back! But when Shrek and Farquaad meet, the Lord strikes a deal of his own: He’ll give the fairy-tale characters their homes back, if Shrek rescues Princess Fiona. Shrek obliges, yet finds something appealing–something strange and different–about this pretty princess. He likes her. A lot. But why does she always run off when the sun sets?

SHREK Fun Facts
The box office is located outside the Performing Arts Center at the end of the main hall known as “Main Street” in the new high school. Those entering from the main rear parking lot should continue down “Main Street” past the gym and cafeteria to reach the box office.
Run Time is approx 2 hours and 30 minutes including one intermission
The cast will be available after the show for photographs and autographs although not necessarily in costume
Saturday, Dec 1 cast and crew will not be out to meet the audience until 25 minutes after the show due to a master class they are receiving from a judge.
The story follows the movie Shrek, however there are many differences as well. Most of the songs are NOT in the movie
There are flashing lights, loud noises (sound effects).
Parking will be difficult. Please plan extra time. You may want to consider dropping your party off at the front door (on the side of the school accessed by Oakdale and right at Sherman Road) and then drive around for the main parking lot. The walk is significantly less from the front door as opposed to the side door entrance by the gym (located by the large parking lot). Additional parking is available in the lower parking lot by the fields.
On Sunday, December 2 all the characters of SHREK will be on hand to spend the morning with you at the Broadway Brunch. Tickets include more than just Brunch - there will be arts and crafts, you can learn a song and dance from the show, lots of photo ops with the Dream Works characters and tour the set and backstage to learn how everything works (including the dragon).
There will be a raffle for many things!
It takes a little over two hours to get into costume and makeup for this show. Shrek takes even longer.
Most students have 4-5 costume changes. Some of which are under 20 seconds.
Yes, its very hot. The cast rehearsed in sweatpants and sweatshirts since September to get use to the heat. There are fans set up back stage and water stations to make sure students stay hydrated. Some students are wearing special cooling vests underneath their outfits to help regulate their body temperature.
The set and costumes are all build from scratch by students. Our technical crew is very talented and very motivated. Students worked for three months, five days a week, designing and building all costumes, props, and set pieces. This includes a massive flooring system and beautiful portals. They had sewed over 205 costumes.
