Event details

Make every day extraordinary. 

There’s magic to do when a prince learns the true meaning of glory, love and war in this iconic and unforgettable musical masterpiece, brought to the Laban Theatre stage by our MA Musical Theatre students. 

With an infectiously unforgettable score from four-time Grammy winner, three-time Oscar winner and musical theatre giant, Stephen Schwartz, Pippin is the story of one young man’s journey to be extraordinary. Winner of four 2013 Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival and featuring choreography by Bob Fosse, this updated circus-inspired version of Pippin continues to captivate and appeal to the young at heart throughout the world. 

Heir to the Frankish throne, the young prince Pippin is in search of the secret to true happiness and fulfillment. He seeks 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, though, Pippin finds that happiness lies not in extraordinary endeavors, but rather in the unextraordinary moments that happen every day. 

Read more about the history of Pippin here and book now to see the show in May. Pippin will be double cast with full cast and creative team details to be announced.
