You’ll be treated to performances by Rob Brereton, Nick Patrone, Noelle Chave, Emily DeMasi, Missy Alexander, Bill Petkanas, George Mallas, and Susanna Marker. Feel free to don your love beads for this special evening of music and nostalgia.

Based on the beloved animated film, "Shrek the Musical" follows the journey of a cynical ogre who reluctantly embarks on a quest to rescue Princess Fiona for the villainous Lord Farquaad in exchange for reclaiming his swamp, which has been overrun by fairy tale creatures. Along the way, Shrek befriends a talkative Donkey and discovers that true beauty comes from within, as he and Fiona gradually fall in love. With clever humor, heartwarming songs, and a message of self-acceptance, the musical transforms the original story into a vibrant stage production that celebrates individuality, friendship, and the idea that everyone deserves to be appreciated for who they truly are.

The Rough & Tumble are a folk/Americana duo, consisting of Mallory Graham & Scott Tyler. Forming in 2011, they spent 8 years full time in a 16ft camper with two big dogs, playing roughly 150 shows a year. At home at festivals, listening rooms, and house concerts across the country, their commanding stage presence, engaging performances and affecting songwriting won them official showcases at Folk Alliance International, NERFA, SERFA and the Independent Music Awards Americana Song of the Year for their song “The Hardest Part".
In 2023 they received recognition for their work in New England as recipients of Club Passim's Iguana Music Fund. Only This Far, the band's most notable work, was released in 2023 and has been described as "quality songs, well written, well played, well sung and arranged, and a pleasure from start to end." In November 2024, The Rough & Tumble released Hymns For My Atheist Sister and Her Friends To Sing Along To, a collection of deeply personal, unifying and uplifting, humanist gospel songs.
