This creative experience will include instruction in movement, voice, character development, and dialogue delivery AND MORE... as campers prepare a musical production of Shrek Jr. Emphasis will be placed on the rehearsal process and development. There is NO SESSION on the 3rd of July. This special program is open to both residents and non-residents.
Beauty is in the eye of the ogre in Shrek The Musical JR., based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks Animation film and fantastic Broadway musical. It's a "big bright beautiful world" as everyone's favorite ogre, Shrek, leads a cast of fairytale misfits on an adventure to rescue a princess and find true acceptance. Part romance and part twisted fairy tale, Shrek JR. is an irreverently fun show with a powerful message for the whole family.
Once upon a time, in a far away swamp, there lived an ogre named Shrek. One day, Shrek finds his swamp invaded by banished fairytale misfits who have been cast off by Lord Farquaad, a tiny terror with big ambitions. When Shrek sets off with a wisecracking donkey to confront Farquaad, he's handed a task — if he rescues feisty princess Fiona, his swamp will be righted. Shrek tries to win Fiona’s love and vanquish Lord Farquaad, but a fairytale wouldn't be complete without a few twists and turns along the way.

History of Branford Parks & Recreation Shoreline Theatre Company
Shoreline Theatre Company (STC) started in the Spring of 2018 as a discussion with The Branford Parks and Recreation Department to try and fill a void in our community, as we felt more performing arts opportunities should be available for people of all ages. Our first show, Hairspray, had a cast of 60 from 10 different towns ranging in age from 13-70. We also offered a summer theatre camp experience for 2nd through 8th graders that concluded with performances of Aladdin Jr. Due to the success of the summer theatre camp, we then offered a Winter camp opportunity with Elf Jr. STC has produced over 20 productions since its inception.
The community has been very supportive of us and we look forward to offering a wide array of shows with different sizes of cast members and immersive experiences for audiences in the future. We hope that STC continues to influence and inspire everyone that experiences a production with us whether it be onstage, behind the scenes or as a spectator.
