In the part Donkey is hopeful Shrek tells Fiona is true feelings for her, but alas all he did was ask if she was going to finish the snack. (Healey photo)
FALL RIVER: Students at Lockview High broke a leg as they performed an outstanding rendition of Shrek The Musical from April 15-18, before sell out crowds for three of their four shows.
LHS teachers Dina Burtt (band); Erik Bauckman; and Vanessa Turner headed up the music and production of the musical.

The cast and crew had been practicing and building the sets required for a few months, making the long hours well worth it with their crowd-pleasing performances.
Reporter Pat Healey was there on opening night and snapped as many photos as he would on a busy weekend of assignments. He pared the photos down to these ones, whioch can be found by checking out our Photo Gallery by clicking the link.
