“Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek…”
And so begins the journey of an unlikely hero who just wants to be left alone in his swamp. Instead, Shrek finds himself swept into a life-changing quest alongside a fast-talking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists her rescue. Add a short-tempered villain, a cookie with an attitude, and a whole crowd of fairy tale misfits, and you’ve got a big, joyful mess that only a true hero can untangle.

With music by Jeanine Tesori and book and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire, Shrek The Musical is packed with humor, heart, and show-stopping songs. Beneath the laughs and spectacle, it’s a story about friendship, self-acceptance, and discovering that sometimes the real magic is being exactly who you are.
Perfect for families, date nights, and anyone who believes fairy tales can be funny, fierce, and full of heart.
Come join the adventure — layers and all — on TCT’s Mainstage.
