Sadly, because of the timing of our print issues, we didnโt get to put a full review of the New Tampa Playersโ production of โShrek The Musicalโ (at the end of last month) in print, but what a fun, touching, magical show it was!
Chris Cordero as the titular ogre & Brianna Fillippelli as his love interest Fiona were the outstanding stars, but the performances by Evan Lomba as Donkey, 6โ-4โ Kyle Fisher as the diminutive Lord Farquaad (which he impressively played on his knees) and 7-year-old Jordan Boyer as both Young Fiona & Baby Bear, plus a terrific supporting cast & great costumes & sets, really made the show something special.
Tickets are on sale now for NTP and Atlas Ballet Theatreโs one night only โWinter Wonderโ on Dec. 8, and for NTPโs โDreamgirlsโ in Feb.
