PIPPIN

PIPPIN
Music & Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, book by Roger O. Hirson
Theatre UP invites audiences to Pippin presented at the Littleton Opera House playing May 7 – 16.
With an infectiously unforgettable score from four-time Grammy winner, three-time Oscar winner and musical
theatre giant, Stephen Schwartz (composer of Wicked & Godspell), Pippin is the story of one young man’s
journey to be extraordinary. Winner of four 2013 Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival, this updated
circus-inspired version of Pippin continues to captivate and appeal to the young at heart throughout the world.
Heir to the Frankish throne, the young prince Pippin is in search of the secret to true happiness and fulfillment.
He seeks it in the glories of the battlefield, the temptations of the flesh and the intrigues of political power (after
disposing of his father, King Charlemagne the Great). In the end, though, Pippin finds that happiness lies not in
extraordinary endeavors, but rather in the unextraordinary moments that happen every day.
Pippin is directed for Theatre UP by Andrew Lidestri with choreography by Madalyn Sheehy.
