This year 2025 at Ashford Hill Primary School we will be performing Shrek The Musical Jr.

Shrek Home Learning Songs

Below is a list of all of the songs from our show.  The links will take you to the youtube version – we will be using these tracks in rehearsals.   If you have been allocated a script, you will need to read along with the song.  This will show you the parts that you will need to sing for your character.  If the song says ‘ALL’  you must also learn these parts.

If you do not have a script,  songs highlighted in green show that these are songs that everyone needs to know.  Please make sure you learn the words to these songs really well! We have done most of them in assembly. 

The more you listen, the more that you will learn and this will mean we have a fantastic show.

Happy learning!

Top Tips for rehearsing at home:

 

-  Listen to the song through so that you can hear where the melody leads.  

- Listen again and think about the meaning of the words

- Use the rehearsal track and sing along as many times as you like - the more mistakes you make, the       more you will learn about the geography of the song!

- Start by using your lyrics and the rehearsal track.  You might like to learn the song in sections

- Then, just use the rehearsal track without lyrics as many times as you can until you feel confident

- Then, give it a go with the backing track only.  Act like the superstar that you are!

- The real magic is, that if you rehearse a lot and you think you have forgotten the words-  your body will do all the remembering for you and the words will come out all on their own!  Give it a try!
