Middle-years students at Ste. Rose School will be under the bright lights later this week, as they hit the stage for Shrek - the Musical.
Performances are set for Thursday and Friday night at the Ste. Rose School Gymnasium.
Katherine Dupre says this musical allows them to use a lot of students.
"We had all kinds of kids that were interested in taking part this year. It is the grades five to eight students that are doing it this year. We actually have a cast of about 32, plus all of our back stage and lighting and sound people. So it is a huge cast this year."
The history of musicals at Ste. Rose school dates back to the mid 1980s, with Dupre playing a key role in bringing back the program a few years ago.
Hannah MacKinnon will play the role of Fiona in the musical.
"When I was first told that I got the role of Fiona, I was really excited. And, I knew that it was a big part to play. But, I commited to it. It is a real fun part to play with lots of lines and a lot of songs to sing."
Show time is 7 PM both nights.
Tickets are $10 each, with children 12-and-under admitted for free.
