Home Madagascar The Musical heads south as UK tour finishes at Mayflower Theatre By Chris Broom Entertainments editor Published 16th Aug 2024, 10:54 BST Watch more of our videos on Shots! and live on Freeview channel 276 Visit Shots! now The cast of Madagascar The Musical are currently in Aberdeen, but from there they are coming the full length of the country, for the final stop of their year-long tour in Hampshire. The show is based on the massive hit Dreamworks film where 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.
Not content to leave well enough alone, Marty lets his curiosity get the better of him and makes his escape to explore the world, which sees our heroes all end up on the east African island.
