Dartmouth Theatre Company present Shrek The Musical JR.

 

Dartmouth Theatre Company presents its production of Shrek The Musical JR. at The Flavel Arts Centre on Friday 23rd, Saturday 24th and Sunday 25th January 2026.

The family-friendly musical comedy follows the adventures of an ogre named Shrek who sets off on a quest to rescue Princess Fiona from a tower guarded by a fierce dragon. Along the way, with his loyal companion Donkey, he encounters a host of fairytale misfits who have been banished by the villainous Lord Farquaad. What begins as a bargain to reclaim the deed to his swamp turns into an epic journey of friendship, laughter, and self-discovery.

 

“Shrek’s unique story of discovery encourages each of us to examine our prejudices, review what we believe to be our limitations, and learn to embrace ourselves and others,” says Freddie Gershon, CEO of Music Theatre International (MTI). “The young cast in this production have embarked on a similar journey, learning more about themselves and each other as they’ve worked together to bring this story to life.”

 

With its fun characters, catchy songs, and a message that it’s okay to be different, Shrek The Musical JR. is perfect entertainment for the whole family.

Shrek the Musical JR. is presented by special arrangement with Music Theatre International. All materials supplied by MTI, mtishows.com.
