Throw in a short-tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you&#8217;ve got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there&#8217;s one on hand&#8230; and his name is Shrek.\u00a0Irreverently fun for the whole family, Shrek proves that beauty is truly in the eye of the ogre.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Join us in the swamp on:<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">February 27th at 7pm<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">February 28th at 2pm and 7pm<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">March 1st at 2pm<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">Tickets are on sale now!
