WMTC: Shrek The Musical

“Once upon a time, there was a little ogre named Shrek….” 

And thus begins the tale of an unlikely hero who finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey, the feisty Princess Fiona, a fire-breathing dragon and the villainous Lord Farquaad. All set to a backdrop of fairy tale misfits.  

This joyful and colourful musical leans into the humanity in all of us that celebrates our differences. Showing us a new kind of love, emphasising the importance of loving ourselves and one another.

From 1 December 2025, a Transaction Fee will apply to all bookings made through WTM, including online, in person, and by telephone. 

This fee helps cover the increased operational costs associated with processing bookings and maintaining our customer-focused ticketing systems. As public funding for the arts continues to decline, Transaction Fees are becoming commonplace across the UK cultural sector, allowing us to protect our programming, invest in digital improvements, and support exceptional customer service. 

As part of their members' benefits, WTM Members and Patrons will not pay a Transaction Fee. This will automatically be applied when you log into your online account.
