Shrek The Musical - Introduction

Shrek the Musical is a musical with music by Jeanine Tesori and book and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire. Shrek The Musical is based on the 1990 book Shrek by William Steig as well as the 2001 DreamWorks film of the same name. Shrek The Musical is part romance, part twisted fairy tale and all irreverent fun.

Lindsay-Abaire and Jason Moore (Director) began working on the show in 2002, with Tesori joining the team from 2004. A reading took place on August 10, 2007, with Stephen Kramer Glickman in the title role, Celia Keenan-Bolger as Princess Fiona, Christopher Sieber as Lord Farquaad and Robert L. Daye, Jr. as Donkey

After a summer tryout in Seattle, the original Broadway production opened December 2008 and lasted over 12 months, closing January 2010. The First North American Tour of Shrek The Musical began in July 2010, and the West End production will open in May 2011.
