Madagascar - A Musical Adventure

Madagascar - A Musical Adventure at Coterie Theatre

A zebra who dreams of wide horizons and a lion who loves his afternoon snacks make for a mismatched pair at the Central Park Zoo. When Marty hits his tenth birthday, his wish to explore the wild doesn't stay a private thought—he escapes, and suddenly Alex the lion is chasing after a best friend who wants something the zoo can never offer. Melman the giraffe and Gloria the hippo join the pursuit, while a crew of penguins plot their own Antarctic getaway. The Coterie brings this musical adventure to Kansas City with songs, friendship friction and one very confused lion stranded far from his celebrity routine.

Madagascar – A Musical Adventure tosses Alex's carefully arranged life into chaos. He thrives on routine and regular meals; Marty craves freedom and open space. Their clash becomes more than philosophical when they all wash up in Madagascar, where King Julien decides Alex's protection sounds like a good deal. The problem? Alex didn't sign up to be anyone's bodyguard, and Marty's dream of the wild is turning complicated fast.

Songs like Wild and Free and Best Friends bring the tension and affection into the open. The sixty-minute show fits young audiences and anyone drawn to stories about what happens when the people you trust want opposite things. Grab tickets for the Coterie Theatre and watch what freedom costs when it means leaving everything familiar behind.
