Everyone's favorite ogre is back in this hilarious stage spectacle, based on the Oscar-winning smash hit film and outrageous Broadway musical.

Beauty is in the eye of the ogre in Shrek The Musical JR., based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film and fantastic Broadway musical.  It's a "big bright beautiful world" as everyone's favorite ogre, Shrek, leads a cast of fairytale misfits on an adventure to rescue a princess and find true acceptance.  Part romance and part twisted fairy tale, Shrek JR. is an irreverently fun show with a powerful message for the whole family.

Once upon a time, in a far away swamp, there lived an ogre named Shrek.  One day, Shrek finds his swamp invaded by banished fairytale misfits who have been cast off by Lord Farquaad, a tiny terror with big ambitions. When Shrek sets off with a wisecracking donkey to confront Farquaad, he's handed a task – if he rescues feisty princess Fiona, his swamp will be righted. Shrek tries to win Fiona’s love and vanquish Lord Farquaad, but a fairytale wouldn't be complete without a few twists and turns along the way.

Since our first production, Guys and Dolls, Jr. in 2014, Katherine L. Albiani Theatre Company has put on an after school musical every year.  In 2015-2016, we added a Musical Theatre class to our Visual and Performing Arts (VAPA) elective offerings and added a show that is cast and rehearsed almost entirely during our sixth period class.  This year we are proud to present Shrek Jr. as our Musical Theatre class production.  Stay tuned for Singin' in the Rain Jr. next spring - information meeting, workshops, and auditions will be in January. All rehearsals will be after school.  Additionally, we offer VAPA Night on November 30 and May 4, and our four middle school Puzzle Play, Shakespeare in the Quad: A Midsummer Night's Dream on April 27.  

Pictures from our rehearsal and performance process will be available for purchase on SmugMug.  Stay tuned for a link.  (Links to past productions will be made available here as well.)
