For an ogre nobody likes, Shrek sure is popular.

Producers announced this week that Shrek will be making his Broadway debut this December, though a casting announcement for Shrek and Donkey has not yet been made, cbc.ca reports.

Casting for the show that has been made includes Princess Fiona, who will be played by Sutton Foster, Christopher Sieber will portray Lord Farquaar, and Kecia Lewis-Evans will play Dragon.

Shrek the Musical will have a pre-Broadway run in Seattle from late August until September, before beginning Broadway previews on Nov. 8. The show will officially open Dec. 14, and will be directed by Jason Moore, with music by Jeanine Tesori, and book and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire.
