Not-So-Young People’s Theater: Shrek The Musical
The Sheridan Arts Foundation’s 6th annual Not- So Young People’s Theater production! NYSPT presents Shrek The Musical starring both youth and adults from the Telluride community!
Based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film, Shrek The Musical is a Tony Award-winning fairy tale adventure, featuring all new songs from Jeanine Tesori (Thoroughly Modern Millie; Caroline, or Change) and a sidesplitting book by David Lindsay-Abaire. Shrek brings all the beloved characters you know from the film to life on stage and proves there’s more to the story than meets the ears.
“Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek….” And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess who resists her rescue. Throw in a short-tempered bad guy, 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.
The cast features: Elijah Aumiller, Jennifer Birrittella, Eric Borchers, Rachel Brand (as Fiona), Dylan Brooks (as Lord Farquaad), Theo Brooks, Jack Caruso, Kevin Douglas (as Shrek), Arthur Forsythe, Elizabeth Guest, Simon Guest, Karen Gugliomone, Ryan Heidenreich, Elizabeth Hinkley, Tagen Kaestner, Meghan Knowles, Bryce Laney, Jennifer Laney, Andrew Murphy, Megan Murphy, Niko Pantovich-Gonzalez (as Donkey), Yana Pollard, Lily Reed, Stella Reed, Susa Smith, Pepper Tyson, and James Van Hooser.
