A new burlesque show will be touring across Australia and New Zealand this summer called Shreklesque, and it is exactly what it sounds like.

It's a full burlesque production filled with and performed by characters from Shrek!


The show first premiered in Perth in 2020, but finally has a chance to hit the road after putting a halt on production because of the pandemic.

In 2021, the show's producer, director and "Shrek" actor Ben Trigger said that "they're beyond thrilled to be able to share Shreklesque with audiences far and wide."

Trigger told The Examiner that the show is loosely based on the original film while blending all different kinds of genres. "It's a mix of burlesque, drag, musical theatre, and comedy, with everything all in one," he said.
