Pippin Event date:2012-01-23

This is a real oddity. A '70s Broadway hit in Bob Fosse's original production, 'Pippin' is a twee, shapeless musical with a lame book by Roger O Hirson and likeable, poppy tunes by Stephen Schwartz ('Wicked'). Like 'The Fantasticks', it has as its central motif a troupe of strolling players; they relate the story of Pippin, son of Charlemagne, and his Candide-like quest for a meaningful life.
