Bryant Jeffrey plays the Wolf. This is his first theater performance, and he said he’s hooked on theater now. Bryant said, “So as a wolf, it’s definitely like a smaller role as you would think being a side character, but the best part of it is probably the fact that not only do I get to play the wolf, but I also get to play many other characters as well. ” Angie McArthur plays Shrek. Angie has performed in theater productions, and she says she wants to continue acting after high school. Angie said she is drawn to Community Theater. Angie said about playing Shrek, “This is by far the biggest role that I have had so far, but it’s really fun being able to be super overly animated and exaggerated and also be able to sing on stage.” Addison said playing the Donkey was her biggest role yet. Addison said, “And as Donkey, it’s also the biggest role I’ve had. And I also think it’s really fun, especially being with like Shrek and the like main characters like Fiona. So I think it’s really fun because I’ve also never done a musical, so it’s definitely been different this year.” Bryant’s sister is only in 8th grade, and she plays the pivotal role of Fiona; her castmates said she is phenomenal.
