Posted: Wednesday, October 12, 2022'Pippin': October 13-22
The Theater Department and Casting Hall Productions proudly present the musical Pippin, directed by Lissette DeJesús, ’22.
Written by Roger Hirson, with music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, Pippin tells the story of a young prince searching for the secret to true happiness and fulfillment—in glories on the battlefield, temptations of the flesh, and intrigues of political power. Along the way, a group of Players show him all the magic he could ever need to feel fulfilled, forcing Pippin to determine what magic really is.
Musical direction by Kathleen Dunne, Buffalo State senior music education major; choreography by Bobby Cooke, award-winning local actor, director, and choreographer. Mary Margaret Keenan-Browne, ’21, stage manager.
