Madagascar: A Musical Adventure JR.

Fri 4 – Sat 5 Apr 2025

Landmark Theatres Rising Stars present “Madagascar – A Musical Adventure JR.”

Join Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe, Gloria the hip hip Hippo and, of course, those hilarious, plotting penguins as they bound onto the stage in this musical adventure.
Madagascar Jr. follows all our favourite crack-a-lackin’ friends as they escape from their home in New York’s Central Park Zoo and find themselves on an unexpected journey to the madcap world of King Julien’s Madagascar.

Alex the lion is the king of the urban jungle, the main attraction at New York’s Central Park Zoo. He and his best friends – Marty the zebra, Melman the giraffe and Gloria the hippo – have spent their whole lives in blissful captivity before an admiring public and with regular meals provided for them. Not content to leave well enough alone, Marty lets his curiosity get the better of him and makes his escape – with the help of some prodigious penguins – to explore the world.

Filled with outlandish characters, adventure galore and an upbeat score, Madagascar JR. will leave audiences with no choice but to “Move It, Move It!”

This Landmark Theatres Rising Stars amateur production is presented by arrangement with Music Theatre International. Madagascar JR is based on the Dreamworks animation motion picture. Book by Kevin Del Aguila. Original Music and Lyrics by George Noreig and Joel Someillan.
