Music by Jeanine Tesori
Book and Lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire
Based on the DreamWorks Animation Motion Picture and the book by William Steig
Performed by children for children, this kids-only production is a highlight of the Jr. Civic season.
“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.
Many thanks to Katz, Sapper & Miller for their generous sponsorship of our student matinee program!
Civic also wishes to thank Christel DeHaan, whose ongoing support helps us bring live theatre to our young audiences.
