Pippin
Description
Due to Governor Cuomo’s COVID-19 Health & Safety protocol and, on the recommendation of the CDC limiting the size of gatherings, the remaining shows for Niagara University’s 2019-2020 Theatre season have been cancelled.
Is the extraordinary discovered in the journey or at the destination?
That’s the question that drives King Charlemagne’s young heir through explorations of war, sex, politics and love –guided dexterously by the manipulative hand of the Leading Player. With an infectiously unforgettable score from Grammy and Oscar winner Stephen Schwartz, Pippin is the ultimate theatrical experience that will thrill, deliver loads of laughs and touch the heart.
Amusing, adventurous, and affecting, the original 1972 Broadway production, directed and choreographed by the celebrated Bob Fosse, received four Tony Awards. The 2013 production won the Tony for Best Revival of a Musical.
