Adapted from a hit animated film, Shrek The Musical follows an irreverent but lovable ogre and his wisecracking donkey as they embark on a quest to rescue a feisty princess from a fire breathing dragon. With stellar performances, breathtaking costumes, beautiful sets, and fun ensemble dance numbers, you’ve got a singing and dancing extravaganza, perfect for an evening of great family fun.
Shrek The Musical brings the beloved characters you know from the film to life on their way to discovering the big bright beautiful world at the end of this fabulously fresh storybook journey. All of the characters are on the same journey ... Shrek's journey … to find acceptance, to find a friend, to find home, to find love. This jubilant musical will surely make you believe in the power of love and the meaning of inner beauty.
For almost 20 years, the Idaho Falls Arts Centre has been providing quality productions in this community. Director Sandi Herrin is excited to “bring this dynamic show with incredible sets and costumes to the stage this year.” She shared that the “precision and synchronicity in this year’s ensemble makes for a high energy experience for the cast and the audience alike.” Bryan Atkins will be featured as the famous embittered ogre and will be joined on stage by his real-life love interest, Dana Atkins, as the beautiful yet temperamental Princess Fiona. The unlikely hero will be surrounded by friends along his life changing journey including his trusty steed, Donkey, played by Kenny McMurphy, a diminutive power-hungry Lord Farquaad, played by Quinten Isenberg, and a love-sick Dragon, played by Keishianna Peterson. And of course, the adventure wouldn’t be complete without the gang of fairytale misfits, including a cookie with an attitude, a fairy godmother, the wicked witch, and many more.
Shrek The Musical runs November 16th, 17th, 19th, and 20th at 7:30 p.m. the Civic Auditorium, with a special matinee performance on Saturday, November 17th.
See you in the swamp!

We are pleased to announce our next fall musical, Shrek The Musical.
Based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film, Shrek The Musical is a Tony Award-winning fairy tale adventure. 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.
Shrek proves that beauty is truly in the eye of the ogre.
Performances will be at the Idaho Falls Civic Auditorium on Novemer 16, 17, 19, and 20, 2018, each evening at 7:30 p.m., with a special 2:00 p.m. matinee performance on November 17th.
Auditions will be scheduled in May. Please stay tuned for more information coming soon.
