The story of his quest is told in a
unique theatrical presentation
headed by a Mephistophelian
leading player and his troupe of
harlequins who act out Pippin's
various confrontations with life.
He tries book learning, samples the
pleasures of the flesh, the furies of
war, foments a revolution and
even contemplates the supreme
act of immortal fame but finally
stetles, like most, for marriage and
family life after all else ends in
disillusion.
"Pippin" has music and lyrics
by Stephen Schwartz, whose first
stage effort was the miraculously
successful musical, "Godspell."
His latest musical, "The Magic
Show," opened recently on
Broadway and is one of the current
season's biggest hits. The book for
"Pippin" was written by Roger 0.
Hirson.
Tickets are on sale at Coliseum
