Opening Night: February 12, 2009
Closing: March 15, 2009
Theater: Mark Taper Forum
Pippin is the captivating coming of age story about a young man’s search for meaning in his life, as told by a lively band of troubadors in the Roman empire. The episodic quest of Pippin, the son of the powerful Charlemagne, takes him through battlefields, orgies, revolution, and finally, love and domesticity, as he tries to find a place for his "spirit to run free," for his "corner of the sky."
