Hirson Lyrics by: Stephen Schwartz Music by: Stephen Schwartz Original Choroegraphy by: Bob Fosse FPP Production Lisner Downstage Thursday Nov. 16th @ 8:00pm Friday Nov. 17th @ 8:00pm Saturday Nov. 18th @ 5:00pm & 9:00pm Sunday Nov. 10th @ 5:00pm & 9:00pm Plot Summary Once upon a time, the young prince Pippin longed to discover the secret of true happiness and fulfillment. He sought it in the glories of the battlefield, the temptations of the flesh and the intrigues of political power (after disposing of his father King Charlemagne the Great). In the end, he found it in the simple pleasures of home and family. Featuring a strong ensemble cast and a show-stealing song-and-dance narrator, “Pippin” is equally effective as an intimate, black-box production (as envisioned by the authors) or as original director/choreographer Bob Fosse’s splashy, dance-driven spectacle, which included some of the most brilliant staging in Broadway history.
