Pippin

Pippin is a metatheatrical musical that tells the story of a young prince on his quest for meaning and significance.

Synopsis

Pippin, son of Charlemagne, is dissatisfied with his life and searches for fulfillment in various endeavors, including war, love, and politics, only to find them all unfulfilling.

Guided by the enigmatic Leading Player and a troupe of performers, Pippin’s journey is a spectacle of storytelling, illusion, and theatricality.

The musical explores themes of identity, purpose, and the allure of showmanship, culminating in a choice between a simple life and a grand finale.
