🌟🧅 And that’s a wrap on Shrek The Musical! 🧅🌟

What a way to finish our run, with two incredible shows yesterday and audiences that were almost completely sold out! 💚

From the very first "Once Upon a Time" to the final curtain call, our cast of talented young performers brought the magic, laughter, heart and a little bit of ogre-sized mischief to the stage. They have amazed us every step of the way, and we couldn’t be prouder of what they achieved.

A huge THANK YOU to all the friends, family members and supporters who bought tickets, filled the seats, cheered from the audience and encouraged these amazing young people. Your support means the world and makes opportunities like this possible.

As Shrek teaches us, the best things happen when people come together, and this production was truly a team effort. Thank you to everyone behind the scenes, our volunteers, helpers, chaperones, creative team, and all those who worked tirelessly to make this swamp-tacular show a reality.

We are passionate about creating opportunities for young people to grow in confidence, discover their talents and make memories that will last a lifetime. Every year they wow us, and every year our community shows up to support them and for that, we are incredibly grateful.

So from our fairy tale family to yours... thank you for believing in these young stars, for supporting youth theatre, and for helping us turn a simple swamp into something truly magical. ✨

Until next time...

"Better out than in, we always say!" 💚🧅
