After delighting audiences across the US, UK, Asia, and the Middle East, Shrek The Musical is set to swamp Melbourne and Sydney this summer with its larger-than-life sets, dazzling costumes, and donkey-sized doses of DreamWorks charm.
Brought to Australia by Showcase Entertainment Group—the team behind Madagascar The Musical and The Cat in the Hat—this high-energy, family favourite celebrates humour, heart, and the joy of being unapologetically yourself.
With a cast of 16 professional performers and Broadway-quality staging, audiences will journey with Shrek, Fiona, Donkey, Lord Farquaad and a colourful band of fairytale misfits on an unforgettable adventure filled with show-stopping songs, dynamic choreography, and a dragon so spectacular it requires its own 40-foot shipping container.
Perfect for families and children aged four and up, this two-hour production offers more than pure entertainment. It’s a vibrant reminder of friendship, courage, inclusion, and embracing who you are—warts, ears, and all.
