Steffan Harri plays Shrek, with Laura Main as Princess Fiona and Marcus Ayton as Donkey. Samuel Holmes will play Lord Farquaad, and the musical will be directed by Nigel Harman, who himself won an Olivier Award for Best Performance in a Supporting Role in a Musical for his own portrayal of Lord Farquaad.
Laura Main said: “I’ve been waiting a long time for an adventure like this to come along and now that it has I am ready to swap the surgery for the swamp in one of my favourite musicals. Shrek has made a believer out of me and I can’t wait for this fairytale to take me across the country.”
Leeds Grand Theatre tells us: “Shrek The Musical is based on the story and characters from William Steig’s book Shrek! and the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animations feature film. Originally directed in the West End by Jason Moore and Rob Ashford, the production has book and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire, music by Jeanine Tesori with multi-award-winning set and costume design by Tim Hatley.”
