PIPPIN

This coming-of-age musical follows the story of Pippin who becomes a soldier for his father's army but is upset by the killing, and murders his father to stop the war. Now King, he is even more lost and unsure about what he wants in life and turns away from everything, including love, before discovering that what he has been searching for has been there all along.  This musical asks: How do we find happiness and fulfillment - especially in a world wrought with war and oppression? What are we willing to sacrifice for the choices we make? Pippin's message is universal and will connect with audiences across the age spectrum. Appropriate for ages 12 and up. 

Stefanie Sertich envisions this production in a post-apocalyptic world. The year is 2044, 20 years after a fictional catastrophic world war. Led by the Leading Player, a troupe of wandering players find M 122 the Black Box Theatre at LaGuardia to be the ideal spot to stage Pippin for the surviving audience!
