PIPPIN Extended at Charing Cross Theatre

The immersive smash-hit new London production of 'Pippin', Stephen Schwartz and Roger O. Hirson's iconic and unforgettable musical masterpiece, directed by Steven Dexter, is extending its season at Charing Cross Theatre to September 5.

'Pippin' was previously booking to 14 August.

Stephen Schwartz said today: "It brings me great joy to see how UK audiences and critics have embraced 'Pippin' anew, and that more people will have the opportunity to experience this fresh and inventive new production. I'm delighted that we will have more 'Magic to Do' during this 'summer of love' at Charing Cross Theatre."
