Director’s Note
I am so glad to see us back in the theater this summer,
  as always there are so many opportunities to bring
   a little drama to our community. I have so enjoyed
     leading this cast. It has truly been a community
 experience. It has been a joy to watch Moms and Dads
  tend to children while taking direction to ask their
  child what the next step in a dance is. The joy that is
  experienced being onstage with families and getting
to watch those interactions is unlike any other. In this
   show, Shrek finds his own family through a bunch
    of misfits just trying to find a little justice in the
 world...sounds a little familiar? I love that this show
 is about finding who you are and letting your flaws,
  your skills, and everything in between help you find
   a place in this world. Shrek is about finding where
  and with who you belong. I know for my journey in
community theatre, this is exactly what I’ve found. My
   flaws are great and yet somehow make me a better
   person. My skills (though not before) have become
  many in learning just enough to make a costume or
 build a piece of a set, or help someone out with music
 (not my skill set, but I can in a pinch). We embrace all
   of who we are and find those rare moments in life
  when all that we are is used for something greater
than ourselves. This is just community theater, a mere
    distraction from life, that causes a little stress, a
  little push out of your comfort zone, a little work,
   and a lot of trust in other people, but most of all,
joy. Just community theater that creates relationships
you can rely on, people who you care about, and more
  creativity than you can imagine . I am so grateful to
  have worked with this cast and crew to bring just a
 little humor for this short time. I hope you enjoy the
 performance as much as we have enjoyed creating it.

and focus through arts experiences - which arms them for success in
any field

• Provide disciplined creative arts study and experiences trying our best
to enable everyone to learn, regardless of their ability to pay

 • Are a place for children and adults to participate in goal-oriented arts-
study, in a non-competitive and technique-based environment

• Serve at least 500 families per week through arts education, theatre,

allowing them the opportunity to perform annually on stage

• Bring an annual count of 55,000 trips into downtown Jonesboro for
