The production re-creates the fantasy Kingdom of Far Far Away with many hilarious, cheeky twists. Instead of a knight in shining armor, the hero is Shrek, a swamp-dwelling ogre teamed up with a blabbermouth donkey. And the princess – She’s the slightly temperamental Fiona. After Shrek rescues Fiona from a dragon-guarded tower, the two fall in love before she reveals there’s more to her than meets the eye. Other fairytale misfits add surprises: from a wooden boy with an attitude to dancing rats.
This entertaining, family-friendly show features a terrific score, with 19 songs including “Welcome To Duloc” and “Freak Flag.” The songs come from Jeanine Tesori, who wrote the music, and David Lindsay-Abaire, who wrote the book and lyrics.
