The Rose Theater’s 2016-2017 Season continues with another wonderful production! I am very excited to see this show with my family, and watch this wonderful story come to life on stage!
Everyone’s favorite ogre is back and bigger than ever in Shrek The Musical (TYA), the hilarious stage spectacle based on the Oscar-winning hit film by DreamWorks Animation.
“This version of Shrek The Musical, which has been adapted specifically for young audiences, demonstrates a unique lens and way of telling the Shrek story,” says Rose Artistic Director Matthew Gutschick, referring to the production’s TYA designation. (Theatre for Young Audiences (TYA) scripts are slightly condensed version of the Broadway show that are just as entertaining as the original but easier for younger theatergoers to sit through.)
Shrek The Musical is recommended for families of children ages five and up. The show is approximately 70 minutes long without an intermission.
