Philippe Hersen will direct “Madagascar’ at the Théâtre du Gymnase from October 19. The cartoon, released in France in 2005, is already turning into a musical in the United States and the United Kingdom.
The comedy film, with 3.19 million admissions in French cinemas, tells with many gags how animals escape from the Central Park zoo to find their zebra friend Marty. The gang will find themselves embarked on a flood of comic adventures on the island of Madagascar.
