Auditions: “Shrek the Musical”

The ARTx3 Campus will host open auditions for “Shrek the Musical” from 2-8 p.m. Sunday, April 19, and 6-9 p.m. Monday, April 20, in the Catherine M. Bellamy Theater at The Arts at Science Center for Southeast Arkansas, 701 S. Main St. 

“Shrek the Musical” is a hilarious and heartwarming stage adaptation of the beloved DreamWorks film, bringing the fairy-tale world of Far Far Away to life with big songs, bold characters, and lots of laughs. The story follows Shrek, a grumpy but lovable ogre whose quiet swamp life is turned upside down when a group of misfit fairy-tale creatures are banished there. Alongside a fast-talking Donkey, Shrek sets out on a quest to rescue Princess Fiona—only to discover that true beauty comes from embracing who you are.

Performances are July 24-26 and July 31-Aug. 2. The production is sponsored by Simmons Bank. Bethany Gere directs, with musical direction by LaLeata May, choreography by Grace McKissic and stage management by Emily Jackson.
