Smiles are the same, and hearts are just the same.” Come with us as we soar to the heart of imagination with a world-premiere musical adaptation that weaves across cultures and generations to celebrate the bond that unites us all.

Whoever You Are Crenshaw Madagascar - A Musical Adventure Jr.

Crenshaw Based on the book by Katherine Applegate Originally published by Macmillan Children’s Publishing Used with permission of Pippin Properties, Inc.

This magically engaging story, proving that family, friendship and resilience are found in the heart of the imagination, will grace our Hopkins Jaycees Studio in May. Crenshaw is a cat. He’s large, he’s outspoken, and…he’s imaginary. Crenshaw has come into 10-year-old Jackson’s life just as his family falls on hard times. Is an imaginary friend enough to save this family from losing everything? This world premiere adaptation, based on the book by the Newbery Medal-winning author of The One and Only Ivan, confirms that friends matter – whether real or imaginary.Copyright © 2015 by Katherine Applegate.
