Gallatin Theater League is happy to be able to present Shrek the Musical this Spring.

“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.
