“Pippin”

June 3, 2018 by Eddie Reynolds Leave a Comment

Pippin
Stephen Schwartz (Music & Lyrics); Roger O. Hirson (Book)
Los Altos Stage Company

Dominic Dagdagan

Los Altos Stage Company’s Pippin is a triumphant success built on deliciously inspired direction, wildly impressive choreography, and vocal performances that never disappoint of songs well-loved by many.  This is a Pippin that speaks to our troubled times just as it did to those of 1972 as so many of us also struggle to discover how to make a difference, how to live a life fulfilling, and how to be our own life’s Lead Player when there are so many negatively controlling and effecting forces in the world around us.

Please continue to Talkin’ Broadway for my full review:  https://www.talkinbroadway.com/page/regional/sanjose/sj126.html.

Rating: 4.5 E
