Fredonia Middle School will present its ninth musical, “Shrek Jr.” at 7 p.m. Friday and 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday in the District Auditorium. All tickets are $5. Reserved tickets are available at fredoniamusical.com with any remaining seats available at the door.

“Shrek Jr.” is based on the book by William Steig and the popular 2001 DreamWorks film. It is the story of a lovable but loner ogre who goes on a quest with his pal Donkey to save Princess Fiona from a Dragon and get the fairy tale creatures off of his land after they were banished there by the evil Lord Farquaad. The musical features many great songs including “I Know It’s Today,” “Freak Flag,” “Big Bright Beautiful World” and “I’m A Believer.”

More than 100 Fredonia students are involved in this production between the cast and backstage crew. Principal cast members include Grant Abbey (Shrek), Katherine Fortna (Princess Fiona), Jackson Gollnitz (Donkey), Toby Lim (Lord Farquaad), Claire d’Amato (Dragon), Mariella Russo (Gingy) and Gracia Domenico (Captain of the Guards).
