Those that believe cartoons are for kids obviously haven’t been paying attention lately.  Movies like Shrek, Rio, and even Toy Story have story lines that adults will enjoy and even love!  Another movie that caught my attention was Dreamworks’ film Madagascar.  I can honestly say I was thoroughly entertained as I watched it with my nieces and nephews in the movie theater.  Now, I’m happy to see that the live theater adaptation is coming to Knoxville this month!

Join Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe, Gloria the hip hip Hippo and of course, those hilarious, plotting penguins as they escape from their home at New York s Central Park Zoo and find themselves on an unexpected journey to the madcap world of King Julien’s Madagascar.
