Students gave a spectacular performance as they brought popular characters including Alex, Marty, Melman, Gloria, King Julien, Maurice, Mort and those mischievous Penguins to life! For some students, it was the very first time they had performed on stage to an audience.

Characters came to life as they ventured from Central Park Zoo to the exotic sandy shores and wild jungle of Madagascar, where we were introduced to the charismatic Lemurs who needed saving from the dreaded Foosa!

Spectacular choreographed musical numbers were as impressive as the outstanding set designs, and costumes and makeup on display throughout the entire performance.
Mr Lee Fleming, CCGS Director of Performing Arts, said, “It is incredible to imagine that, for many, this was their musical theatre debut of any kind – every show was handled with composure and energy,”
“Congratulations to all the students involved and the incredible staff who worked tirelessly to make theatre magic happen for our school community. Memories for a lifetime have been made for our Year 6 students,” said Mr Fleming.
