There’s magic to do when a prince learns the true meaning of glory, love and war in musical theatre giant Stephen Schwartz’s iconic and unforgettable musical masterpiece Pippin. With an infectiously unforgettable score, Pippin is the story of one young man’s journey to be extraordinary. Guided by a mysterious troupe of performers and led by the charismatic Leading Player, Pippin explores various paths, including war, political power, love, and simple domesticity. Each venture leaves him unsatisfied, pushing him to discover what truly makes life meaningful. Known for its memorable songs like “Magic to Do” and “Corner of the Sky,” Pippin is a captivating blend of spectacle, introspection, and theatrical magic.
Winner of four 2013 Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival, the updated version of Pippin continues to captivate and appeal to the young at heart throughout the world.
