Cast and characters from Shrek promoted Magical Starlight Theatre during the Little Friends Parade of LIghts on Dec. 1.

A cast of 58 talented community actors will present the story of a faraway kingdom turned upside down when an unseemly ogre shows up to rescue a feisty princess.

“This family-friendly show truly will thrill Shrek fans of all ages from the moment they walk in the door until the curtain closes. This is an enormous team effort, and it’s been fantastic to see it all come together,” said director Kris Visher. “Shrek, Fiona, Donkey and the rest of the cast and crew are going to knock your socks off.”

Friday performances begin at 7:30PM. Saturday performances include both a matinee at 2PM. and an evening show at 7:30PM, and Sunday performances are at 2PM. A sign language interpreter will be present at the 2PM performance on Sun., Jan. 19 and at the 7:30PM show on Sat., Jan. 25.

Tickets are $10 at the door or $8 if purchased in advance through the Naperville Park District. Tickets may be purchased in advance at www.napervilleparks.org until noon on the Friday before the weekend performances or at the Park District Administration Building at 320 W.
