Once again, the team from Living It Up Performing Arts Centre are taking to the stage to bring their joy-filled annual theatrical extravaganza to the people of Bedford.

Following year-on-year five-star reviews from the Bedford Clanger, this year’s show promises to be just as entertaining and tickets are on sale now.

At the Quarry Theatre on Tuesday, 18 February, ‘Get Ogre It!’ is a one-night-only musical journey featuring the unlikely duo, Ant and Shrek.

Adapted from the film Shrek, the entire show has been created by members of the Living It Up Performing Arts Centre with learning disabilities and/or autism and is certain to leave the audience amazed and thoroughly entertained.

The story follows the royal family who are left in crisis by a kidnap and an evil curse.

Ant and Shrek reluctantly make a deal to come to the rescue under pressure from some of the evilest bullies in the land. On the way they meet some strange friends and sinister foes, encounter magic spells and of course, spend lots of time in the local pub – with plenty of music and mischief along the way.

Tickets are just £7.50 and carers and under 14s go free. For tickets, either email info@lovelivingitup.org or visit wegottickets.com/event/645656

Audience participation is greatly appreciated. Highly recommended by Clanger HQ.
