--Time Out NY
LOS
ANGELES, CA – The greatest fairy tale never told comes to life as never before
in DreamWorks’ Shrek The Musical,
the highly acclaimed Broadway production based on the smash-hit movie. Called a
“triumph of comic imagination” (Elysa Gardner, USA Today) that “never
stints on spectacle or laughs” (David Rooney, Variety), Shrek The Musical received eight
2009 Tony Award® nominations including Best Musical, winning Best Costume
Design of a Musical (Tim Hatley) and received a Grammy Award® nomination for
Best Musical Show Album.
Featuring a fantastic score of 17 all-new songs, Shrek The Musical was
filmed on stage to capture the magic of a Broadway performance and stars an amazing celebrated cast including Brian d’Arcy
James (Shrek), Sutton Foster (Fiona), Daniel Breaker (Donkey), Christopher
Sieber (Lord Farquaad), and John Tartaglia (Pinocchio). The film was shot live
on Broadway with 10 cameras and directed by Michael Warren. Now you can bring
the magic of Broadway to your home and get the best seat in the house when the
Deluxe Edition Blu-ray™ and DVD arrives on October 15th!
Fans can join in on the performance with sing
along Shrek-tastic songs on the Deluxe Edition Blu-ray™ + DVD + Digital HD™
or single-disc DVD. And the Deluxe Edition Blu-ray™ goes even deeper into the
fairytale’s journey, taking viewers behind-the-scenes to see how the show
became a smash hit that “will make your heart dance.” (Cindy Adams, The
New York Post).
Shrek
The Musical tells the story of a
swamp-dwelling ogre who goes on a life-changing adventure to reclaim the deed
to his land. Joined by a wise-cracking donkey, this unlikely hero fights a
fearsome dragon, rescues a feisty princess and learns that real friendship and
true love aren’t only found in fairy tales.
The musical is based on the story and
characters from William Steig's book Shrek!, as well as the DreamWorks
Animation film and features a book and lyrics by Pulitzer Prize® winner, David
Lindsay-Abaire, music by Olivier Award-winner Jeanine Tesori, and is directed
by Tony Award® nominee Jason Moore. Shrek
The Musical is produced by DreamWorks Theatricals and Neal Street
Productions, Ltd.
