Cygnet Players Bring Shrek: The Musical to Fulham

---

Theatre group present half term treat at London Oratory School in Seagrave Road

The cast of Shrek: The Musical visit Fulham Broadway to spread the word about the production

Shrek: The Musical.

Bsed on the much loved animated film, Shrek: The Musical tells the story of a hulking green ogre with a heart of gold, his hilarious, if annoying, sidekick Donkey, and the beautiful and feisty Princess Fiona, characters played in the movie by Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy and Cameron Diaz.

Set in the mythical ‘Once Upon A Time’ land of Duloc, where fairy-tale creatures are outlawed, this is a story of acceptance, inner beauty and standing up for the little guy.

Cygnet Players is one of the first theatre societies to stage the musical in London since the rights became available in January. It's also one of the first productions of Shrek: The Musical in London since the West End production, at the Theatre Royal in Drury Lane closed in February 2013.

Cygnet Player are an award winning amateur musical theatre company who rehearse and perform across South West London, including Southfields and Putney as well as visits across the river to Fulham.

Established in 1997, they perform two musicals and a play every year, as well as putting on various concerts and other events. Previous shows include Spring Awakening, 9-5: The Musical, All Shook Up, Top Hat, Hairspray and Legally Blonde.

Performances at the John McIntosh Arts Centre, London Oratory School Theatre, at the southern end of Seagrave Road in Fulham are scheduled for 19, 20 and 21 February at 7.30pm and Saturday 22 February at 12pm and 5pm.
