The story

What Is A Day at the Museum About?

The premise of A Day at the Museum without spoilers.

A terrified curator fears the green plants, a mother is plastified for display, a ballet of Saintes Vierges unfolds, guards are exhausted by Rodin, a minister is lost in a sex‑themed exhibit, a car disappears in the Rembrandt parking, provincial admirers of Impressionists wander, tourists race room‑to‑room, a stowaway hides among masterpieces, and Picasso, Gauguin and Warhol all populate this world that mirrors society, turning the museum into a comic, burlesque stage.
