SHREK THE MUSICAL

1-5 JULY AT MUANGTHAI RACHADALAI THEATRE

 

(Bangkok/22 March 2016) — DreamWorks Theatricals, Broadway Entertainment Group FZ LLC and NETworks Presentations LLC in collaboration with BEC-Tero Scenario are pleased to announce that the English language production of SHREK THE MUSICAL with book and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire and music by Jeanine Tesori, is coming to Bangkok for the very first time as part of its first ever international tour.

Tickets go on sale     2 April at 10 A.M. and are available at ThaiTicketMajor.

 

SHREK THE MUSICAL is based on the Oscar®-winning DreamWorks Animation film that started it all. This live adaptation brings the hilarious story of everyone’s favorite ogre to the stage. In a far away kingdom turned upside down, things get ugly when an ogre – not a handsome prince – shows up to rescue a feisty princess. Throw in a donkey that does not keep quiet, a villain with a short temper, 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.

 

“We are thrilled that SHREK THE MUSICAL will be performed in places it’s never been before,” said DreamWorks Theatricals, “and for families all over the world to experience their favorite ogre and fairy tale creatures live on stage.”

 

SHREK THE MUSICAL features a book and lyrics by Pulitzer Prize^® winner David Lindsay-Abaire (Rabbit Hole, Good People), music by Olivier Award-winner Jeanine Tesori (Thoroughly Modern Millie, Caroline, or Change). SHREK THE MUSICAL is choreographed by Chris Bailey and directed by Stephen Sposito who served as Associate Director of the Broadway revival How To Succeed In Business starring Daniel Radcliff. Costumes are the Tony Award^® winner designs by Tim Hatley (Private Lives, Spamalot).

This production of SHREK THE MUSICAL is produced by Broadway Entertainment Group FZ LLC and NETworks Presentations, LLC. Promoted in Thailand by BEC-Tero Scenario.
