About Shrek: In a far away swamp, ogre Shrek’s peace and quiet was shattered by an invasion of fairy tale characters. After finding out that they were banished from their kingdom by the evil Lord Farquaad, Shrek sets off with a wisecracking donkey to confront Farquaad, and he’s handed a task – if he rescues feisty princess Fiona, his swamp will be righted. With the rescue under way the Princess sheds light on a deep, dark secret that will change the “Happily Ever After” for Shrek’s village forever.
SAYT’s 8th grade and under production of Shrek includes 63 youth performers.
