You can see Shrek the Musical in Edinburgh next month

The critically-acclaimed Shrek musical is coming to the Kings Theatre in Edinburgh next month - and it's set to be ogre-tastic.

Based on the Oscar-winning Dreamworks Animation film, Shrek The Musical brings all your favourite characters you know from the film to life.

It's a new, exciting stage adaptation of the well-loved film.

The unconventional fairytale follows the big, green, terrifying ogre, who lives by himself in a swamp.

 

Expect to see Shrek's travelling companion, the famous Donkey, and feisty princess Fiona who needs rescuing from a tower which is guarded by a fire-breathing dragon.

We also have all of our beloved fairytale characters from cherished children's books, such as the three blind mice, Pinnochio and the big bad wolf from Little Red Riding Hood.

Our hero Shrek sets out on his journey to rescue Fiona and save the kingdom from short-tempered ruler of the city Duloc, Lord Farquaad. It is an emotional and hilarious roller coaster of a show that you do not want to miss!

Presented by The Bohemians, the musical will be taking place from March 25 to March 28.

The tickets will be priced from £18.50 and you can purchase them here.
