The Department of Theatre closes our season with a lush production of the Broadway hit Pippin. This time-bending musical (music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and book by Roger O. Hirson) tells the story of an actor named Pippin in search of a place in the world. Replete with its classic score and big dance numbers, our production, directed by Professor Dean Adams, also infuses new energy with contemporary circus arts and aerial performance and plenty of magic (of both the theatrical and sleight-of-hand varieties!). A multiple Tony Award winner when it debuted in 1972 and again for the 2013 Broadway revival, Pippin is a big-hearted tale of adventure and self-discovery.Please note: All performances of Pippin incorporate the use of haze and strobe effects. Viewer discretion is advised for individuals with light sensitivity and/or photosensitive epilepsy.
