Children ages 8-18 are invited to audition for "Shrek the Musical". Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Shrek the Musical is a fun-filled, heartwarming stage adaptation of the hit DreamWorks animated film. This hilarious and exciting show follows Shrek, a grumpy but lovable ogre, as he embarks on a quest to rescue Princess Fiona—only to discover that true love and friendship come in the most unexpected forms. With a cast of quirky fairytale characters, catchy songs, and plenty of laughs, Shrek the Musical is a fantastic show for performers of all ages. Additional info: Please prepare a song to sing (not from this show), and dress in comfortable clothing for a dance audition. A piano accompanist will be provided at auditions, and directors will also have a speaker available for those using a karaoke track. Please prepare a list of any conflicts you have with rehearsals for your audition. Rehearsals will be in the evenings on weeknights in May, then move to the afternoons in June and continue until performances in July. Performances of “Shrek the Musical” will take place July 9-13, 2025 at Peoria Players Theatre. Note: There is no fee to audition, but children who are cast will have a registration fee applied. There is a discounted registration fee for each additional child from the same family. If interested, please apply.
