GloveArts’ summer youth theatre program kicks off our summer performance season with our Summer Youth Musical – Dreamworks’ Madagascar—A Musical Adventure KIDS.

Based on the smash DreamWorks animated motion picture, Madagascar–KIDS follows all your favorite 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. Filled with outlandish characters, adventure galore and an upbeat score, Madagascar–KIDS will leave audiences with no choice but to “Move It, Move It!” This action-packed musical will have everyone on their feet!

These performances culminate our two-week program program for students in 1st through 12th grade.

The Glove is thrilled to welcome back Jennifer Flynn as Lead Teaching Artist for the Summer Youth Musical. Ms. Flynn has been directing our Summer Youth Musicals since 2017. Ms. Flynn noted, “I always enjoy my time at The Glove Theatre working with kids from various schools and age groups during the summer. We have a lot of fun working together, not only on the show, but in developing lifelong friendships.”

Glove President, Kathleen Perrott said, “What Ms. Flynn can accomplish with upwards of 100 children in just two weeks is truly amazing. The kids have a fabulous experience – and the public performances are a delight for the young and the young at heart!”

Whether you have a child in the program or you are just looking for some local theater fun — this is the show for you!
