The Shrek production team had been toying with the idea for a musical since early 2002. But the Broadway production started only in the year 2008. The peppy song numbers are brought to you by Jeanne Tesori, with lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire.
Stephen Kramer Glickman will play the part of Shrek. Celia Keenan–Bolger will be the beautiful Princess Fiona. The much loved humorous sidekick Donkey will be played by Robert L Daye Jr. and Christopher Sieber will be the villain, the evil Lord Farquaad.
Shrek was abandoned by his family as a child and he lives a lonely life in a swamp.
