SCC Young People's Theatre to present 'Shrek The Musical' March 21-30

Published: 03/05/2014

“Shrek The Musical” will be performed at 7 p.m. Friday-Saturday, March 21-22 and 28-29, and 2 p.m. Saturday-Sunday, March 22-23 and March 29-30.  Tickets are $9 for all ages. The campus is located at 4601 Mid Rivers Mall Drive in Cottleville.

Based on the DreamWorks Animation Motion Picture and the book by William Steig, the musical is set in a faraway kingdom that is turned upside down when an ugly ogre – not a handsome prince – shows up to rescue a feisty princess. Throw in a talkative donkey, a bad guy, a cookie with attitude and more than a dozen other fairytale misfits, and you get a mess that calls for a real hero.
