CONWAY — Arts in Motion Theater Co.’s production of “Shrek: The Musical” — being performed Thursday-Sunday over the next two weeks, except for June 18, at the Loynd Auditorium at Kennett High School in Conway — provides a funny and joyous experience.

Based on the 2001 Dreamworks animated film, which itself was based on a children’s book by William Steig, the musical adapts all the best scenes from the film while further expanding the material.
