Shrek the Musical is a fairytale musical adventure that was first performed on Broadway in December 2008. It brings the 2001 Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film to life. This Tony Award-winning fairy tale musical adventure features songs from Olivier award-winner Jeanine Tesori and book and lyrics by Pulitzer Prize winner David Lindsay-Abaire. In 2013, a high definition of the production was released on a DVD, Blu-ray, and digital download in North America and the United Kingdom. The digital version of the film became available on Netflix beginning December 2013.
The original Broadway production cast featured Brian d'Arcy James as Shrek, Tony Award winner Sutton Foster as Princess Fiona, Christopher Sieber as Lord Farquaad, Daniel Breaker as Donkey, and John Tartaglia as Pinocchio.
David Lindsay-Abaire and Tony Award nominee director Jason Moore started working on the show in 2002. Two years later, Jeanine Tesori joined the team. A reading took place on August 10, 2007, with Stephen Kramer Glickman playing the role of Shrek, Celia Keenan-Bolger as Princess Fiona, Robert L. Daye in the role of Donkey, and Sieber as Lord Farquaad.
In 2009, Shrek the Musical was nominated in the Grammy Awards for Best Musical Show Album. In that same year, the musical was nominated in several categories for Tony Awards, where costume designer for theater and film Tim Hatley won the Best Costume Design award, and Drama Desk Award, where actor Brian d'Arcy James won the Outstanding Actor in the Musical award. Hatley won Outstanding Set Design and Outstanding Set Design awards as well. In 2012, the West End production was nominated for four Lawrence Olivier awards, including Best New Musical, and Nigel Harman won the award for Best Performance in a Supporting Role in a Musical where he played the role of Lord Farquaad.
