Atlanta Warms Up to Shrek: Humorous Charm Casts an Oasis of Fun and Amusement

Anyone who has ever watched the animated feature film adaptation of Shrek by DreamWorks Animation will appreciate the humor concocted by the hilarious, wise-cracking donkey and the princess, who in her unique fashion, takes rescue into her own hands. By all indications, the charm and humor that attracted an extensive viewing audience to its animated version can be enjoyed in the live theatre adaptation of “SHREK THE MUSICAL“.

The Overture

With a labyrinthine root in clear cut comic overtures, the citizens of Atlanta are beaming with excitement as the musical adaptation of the epic animation hits town with a repertoire of performances. This artistic adaptation has commenced a limited run at the prestigious Fox Theatre with one show on Saturday, April 6 and two shows on Sunday, April 7, offering audiences a plethora of opportunities to witness this comic masterpiece.

Meet the Cast

The star-studded ensemble unites an acclaimed team behind Broadway’s “Kimberly Akimbo,” Jeanine Tesori (music) and David Lindsay-Abaire (book) in the challenging roles of Shrek and Princess Fiona, both amplified by the spellbinding performances of Nicholas Hambruch and Georgia’s native talent, Cecily Dionne Davis respectively. For those familiar with Shrek, casting this talented duo promises another round of non-stop laughter and fairy-tale narrations that transport audiences into a world of ogres, donkeys and, of course, a not-so-damsel in distress!

Behind the Scenes

Artistic choreography, dazzling set design, and colorful costumes pay homage to the original film, transporting viewers straight into the kingdom of Duloc. An intricately woven tale stays true to the original plotline with both lighthearted and heartwarming moments. Each character’s unique charm and quirkiness are brought to life, combined with an impressive musical score and infectious melodies.

Love at Second Sight

The event promises to showcase the eccentricities of the lovable giant green ogre and his bunch of misfit fairy-tale friends. Audiences of all ages are assured a delightful evening of laughter and entertainment, inviting them to “fall in love all ogre again”. Unraveling in the heart of Atlanta, SHREK THE MUSICAL is set to render an enchanting experience filled with an abundance of humor, love, and the unconventional hero in an ogre’s form.
