Why see Shrek - The Musical?

From The Swamp To San Jose

Bursting from the screen to the stage, the Tony-winning Shrek The Musical blends the beloved feature film story of the titular swamp-dwelling ogre and his wise-cracking donkey sidekick with toe-tapping songs by Jeanine Tesori and a riotously funny book by David Lindsay-Abaire for a family-friendly adventure you won't soon forget!

What is the story?

After retreating from society to live in blissful isolation, his swamp home is invaded by a host of familiar fairy tale characters including Pinocchio and The Three Little Pigs, who've been evicted by the vicious and vertically-challenged Lord Farquaad. So Shrek takes his grievances to the tiny tyrant and the two strike up a deal - Shrek can have his home back all to himself if he rescues Princess Fiona from a faraway lair protected by a dragon, prompting a whirlwind adventure filled with danger, hilarity and true love...
