Video: Watch Archival Footage of Patina Miller Performing 'Simple Joys' From PIPPIN at American Repertory Theater
Patina Miller won a Tony Award for this role when A.R.T's production went on to Broadway in 2013.
American Repertory Theater has released archival footage of "Simple Joys" from the A.R.T.'s production of Pippin, which played at the American Repertory Theater at Harvard University from December 5, 2012 to January 20, 2013. The A.R.T. revival was a bold new staging of the dark and existential musical. Pippin, on a death-defying journey to find his "corner of the sky," must choose between a life that's ordinary or a flash of singular glory. #ExploreTheARTArchives
