“Let your freak flag fly!”

When a grumpy green ogre named Shrek finds his beloved swamp overrun by displaced fairy-tale creatures, the hulking loner strikes a deal with a scheming Lord to get his home back. That deal sends him on a once-in-a-lifetime journey alongside a hilarious Donkey and a fierce princess—a journey that reveals that anyone, even a less-than-fresh-smelling ogre, can be a hero. Joyously irreverent and endlessly entertaining, the blockbuster film comes to life outdoors in OSF’s historic Allen Elizabethan Theatre. With a humorous score from a Pulitzer Prize–honored and Tony Award–winning musical theatre duo and under the direction of Bill Fennelly, Shrek will have everyone in the family embracing their inner ogre.

Shrek The Musical is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com

Suitability Suggestions
This hilarious and heartwarming musical is a great night out for the whole family. The show includes juvenile humor, including jokes about bodily functions and playful insults. Audiences should expect occasional mild profanity, subtle sexual innuendo, and double entendre. While there is no realistically staged violence, younger audiences should be prepared for scary moments including exaggerated fairy-tale threats, torture, and slapstick violence.
