Broadway Palm to Donate Portion of First Week SHREK Sales to Golisano Children's Hospital

Broadway Palm will be presenting Shrek the Musical June 27 to August 10, 2013. All of their opening week performances; Thursday, June 27 through Sunday, June 30; are benefit performances in which Broadway Palm will donate $5 for every ticket purchased directly to Golisano Children's Hospital of Southwest Florida.

Golisano Children's Hospital of Southwest Florida is part of Lee Memorial Health System---one of the state's largest not-for-profit safety-net hospital systems with a commitment to providing the highest level of care to the sick and injured children and families of Southwest Florida. Now, more than ever, the hospital must rely on philanthropy to effectively accomplish its mission. To meet the growing demands of critically injured and ill children in Southwest Florida, Golisano Children's Hospital of Southwest Florida must expand. The plan includes construction of a new 128-bed state-of-the-art pediatric medical facility on the grounds of HealthPark Medical Center in Fort Myers.

This hilarious story of everyone's favorite ogre comes to life on the Broadway Palm stage and is part romance, part twisted fairytale and all irreverent fun! Shrek the Musical tells the story of a swamp-dwelling ogre who goes on a life-changing adventure to rescue a feisty princess and reclaim the deed to his land. Throw in a wise-cracking donkey, a villain with a SHORT temper, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairytale misfits and you've got a mess that calls for a real hero...SHREK!
