Singers Sought for "Shrek" Summer Musical

(A2-G#4) Our story's title character. A big, green, terrifying ogre who lives alone on a swamp. He embarks on a journey to rid his land of fairytale creatures and, along the way, falls in love with Fiona. Begins as a grumpy hermit, but reveals his layers, heart and eventually becomes the hero of our story.

(F3 to G5) The beautiful princess of Far Far Away, she transforms into an ogre every night when the sun sets. Rescued from a tower by Shrek and eventually falls in love with him. Quirky, blunt, and multitalented, she is not an ordinary princess. Fiona performs a tap number alongside a bunch of dancing rats.

(C3 to B4) A talking donkey who joins Shrek when on the run from Farquaad's guards. Quite the chatterbox, he is not deterred by Shrek's looks (or smells) and works his way into Shrek’s good graces. Easily frightened with an optimistic heart.

Lord Farquaad (B2 to D5) The comically short, ruthless ruler of Duloc in search of a princes to marry so he can become king. Has an intensely unfair bias against fairytale creatures stemming from resentment of his father. Self- absorbed, lonely, and cruel.

(F3 to Eb5) A dragon charged with guarding Princess Fiona. She eventually falls in love with Donkey and attempts to keep him there forever. Imposing, flirtatious and tired of her job as a glorified baby-sitter. A 16 ft puppet voiced by an actor.

(B3 to C#5) A gingerbread man initially kidnapped by Lord Farquaad. His wit and resolution help him both avoid trouble and inspire the rest of the fairytale creatures. Gingy is a puppet, most likely operated by an actress appearing as Sugar Plum Fairy.

(E3 to F#4) The leader of the fairytale creatures. He is a “real boy” whose nose grows every time he lies. Plenty of sass with a penchant for lying. This role is typically played by a male actor who sings and talks in their falsetto range.
