Auditions for Pippin are coming up

May 23rd from 9am-12pm

May 24th from 2-4pm,

and we want performers who are eager to explore a world filled with magic, mischief, and big musical moments.

The story of Pippin is told by a traveling troupe of actors, led by the charming Leading Player. The troupe dazzle and delight as they tell the story of the young prince, heir to the throne, who is searching for his own “Corner of the Sky”. Pippin returns from university certain that he will find a fulfilling purpose in life. He dabbles in bloody battle, licentious and lusty entanglements, and saavy political maneuvers, only to discover that true happiness is more complicated than he thought.

With infectious music by Stephen Schwartz and classic choreography from Bob Fosse, Pippin is both a humorous allegory about growing up and a dark tale of the danger of false appearances and empty promises.

Whether you love to sing, dance, act, or simply bring bold energy to the stage, this is your chance to join our troupe of storytellers. Save the date and come share your spark with us at auditions.
