Shrek The Musical Final Thoughts

We took our eight year old and he absolutely love it. He sat immersed in the show eagerly awaiting the appearance of each familiar character as the story unfolded. The standing ovation at the end clearly showed that the audience absolutely loved the show too. The audience’s high spirits was evident as we left the theatre and we are still singing ‘I’m a believer’ now. You won’t be disappointed! grab your tickets to Shrek the Musical now!
