“At its core, Shrek The Musical is about embracing who you are, not who the world expects you to be,” says Chris Adams, RCMT Artistic Director. “The show celebrates individuality, challenges superficial judgment, and reminds us that community is strongest when it is inclusive. That message feels incredibly timely. As a theatre company, we believe in welcoming everyone, not just on stage but in our audience and our broader community. This story reinforces that value in a joyful and heartfelt way.”
Beginning in a swamp neighbouring the Kingdom of Duloc, the musical opens with the grumpy ogre, Shrek, discovering his home has been overrun by banished fairy tale creatures. To regain his privacy, Shrek makes a deal with the dastardly Lord Farquaad to rescue Princess Fiona from a dragon-guarded tower. Aided by a talkative Donkey he rescues along the way, Shrek manages to rescue Fiona, but falls in love with her, unaware that she is under a secret curse. The unlikely trio go on an adventure and discover self-acceptance and belonging along the way. The play stars Tanner Zerr (Shrek), Madison Simms (Fiona), Chris Francisque (Donkey), Kamyar Pazandeh (Lord Farquaad), and Alexis Hope (Dragon).
Based on the 2001 DreamWorks Animation film Shrek, Shrek The Musical made its Broadway debut in December 2008, earning 12 Drama Desk Award nominations, eight Tony Award nominations, and a Grammy nomination for Best Musical Theater Album. The Broadway run was later followed by a tour of the US, as well as a revamped West End production in the UK.
