âShrek the Musicalâ at Opera House
Everyoneâs favorite ogre will visit the Lexington Opera House this month in âShrek the Musical,â the show based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks film.
In a faraway kingdom turned upside down, things get ugly when an unseemly ogre shows up to rescue a feisty princess instead of a handsome prince.
Throw in a donkey who wonât shut up, a villain with a short temper, and a cookie with an attitude, and youâve got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, thereâs one on hand ⊠and his name is Shrek.
The show features 19 all-new songs, big laughs, great dancing and breathtaking scenery.
âShrek the Musicalâ is part romance, part twisted fairy tale, and irreverent fun for everyone. Shrek may not look like a prince, but proves he has the heart of a hero when it comes to saving the Princess Fiona, who may not be all that she seems either.
Show times are Feb. 17-19, at 7 p.m. on Friday, and 1 and 7 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Tickets are $65-$85. Info: 233-4567 or www.lexingtonoperahouse.com.
