Regis Ramblers
The Ramblers is an all-inclusive musical theatre club, casting and welcoming any students who express an interest in being involved in a production. While students of all academic interests and majors make up the core of the production, the program has benefited from the continued growth of Regis' music department and the continued improvement of the performance space that has come with that growth.

Based on the hit DreamWorks animated film, the iconic ogre Shrek, the happy-go-lucky Donkey and Princess Fiona take the stage in Shrek the Musical. In this modern fairytale, Shrek the ogre is thrust into the hero’s role to save a feisty princess –– and the rest of the fairytale kingdom.
Just like an onion, our unlikely protagonist’s journey of self-love has layers of laughs, music and a tender heart at the core. Shrek’s unique costumes, sets and even puppetry (there is a fire-breathing dragon, after all!) make for an unforgettable show for the entire family.
Shrek the Musical

History of the Ramblers
The Regis Ramblers musical theater club was started in the fall of 1995, by Regis computer science professor emeritus Dennis Steele, Ph.D. and his daughter, Shannan, who at the time was a Regis student. Together, they began what has become an important piece of the Regis experience for hundreds of students and alumni. In the spring of 1996, the Ramblers performed their first musical to a sold-out audience: Li'l Abner. The following years would bring new challenges, teamwork and a collection of Ramblers alumni who have continued to support and be entertained by the thriving club to which they once belonged.
Now, the Ramblers are entering a new chapter in their time at Regis. After many successful years of existing as a student club, it is now being offered as a college course! The Ramblers student leaders, Student Activities and the Music Department have joined forces to bring a new musical theatre learning experience to students at Regis. All students, no matter their major, are welcome and encouraged to join in the fun. Under the current direction of Tanner Kelly and choreographer Dallas Slankard, The Regis Ramblers are looking towards the future, and plan to stick around to entertain the Regis community for years to come.
