"Although Shrek stems from the 2001 DreamWorks film, it is genuinely theatrical, generous-spirited and mercifully free of the sensory bombardment that afflicts some of its rivals," The Guardian shared in its review of Shrek's 2011 show.

"Shrek has been a vaguely counter-cultural mainstream hit since the 2001 DreamWorks animated film (based on a 1990 book) and this touring production of the musical version is an absolute treat," Everything Theatre shared in their review of a September 2023 show.
