Sign Up For Auditions

Prepare for an epic adventure full of heart, humor, unforgettable characters, and an inspiring message about human dignity! Join us July 15-20, 2025, as we bring Broadway’s SHREK THE MUSICAL to life on the award-winning Upper Room Theatre stage.

Based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks animated film and adapted by a powerhouse team—including Tony Award-winning composer Jeanine Tesori (Thoroughly Modern Millie, Caroline, or Change) and Pulitzer Prize-winning writer David Lindsay-Abaire (Rabbit Hole, Kimberly Akimbo)—SHREK brings sidesplitting humor, a dynamic score, and plenty of fairy tale twists to the stage, making it a celebrated Broadway hit worldwide!

“Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek…”

And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who just wants to be left alone in his swamp. But when a band of quirky fairy tale creatures invades his peaceful home—and a hilarious, unlikely friendship with a talking Donkey blossoms—Shrek is forced onto a wild quest to rescue a feisty princess who’s anything but the typical damsel-in-distress.

Along the way, he faces a short-tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude, and more than a dozen wacky fairy tale misfits in an adventure that calls for a true hero. And luckily, there’s one on hand… and his name is Shrek.

With hilarious dialogue, high-energy songs, and show-stopping dance numbers, SHREK is pure fun for the whole family.

But it’s more than just an entertaining tale…

At its heart, Shrek is a powerful story of self-acceptance, friendship, and discovering that true beauty is found within. This message of embracing our unique gifts and using them to lift others will resonate with audiences of all ages, leaving smiles and warmth in everyone’s hearts.

We can’t wait to see you in July for this magical, larger-than-life musical that will leave you laughing, singing, and feeling inspired!

Mark your calendars now for July 15-20, 2025! SHREK THE MUSICAL auditions will take place in mid-May and all updates will be posted on our website.
