Pine Creek High School

Pine Creek Theatre presents PIPPIN as their spring musical, March 31, April 1, 2, 3 at 7:00 p.m. at the Pine Creek High School Auditorium, 10750 Thunder Mtn. Ave., Colorado Springs, CO 80908.

Once upon a time, the young prince Pippin longed to discover the secret of true happiness and fulfillment. He sought 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, however, he found it in the simple pleasures of home and family.

This hip, tongue-in-cheek, anachronistic fairy tale captivated Broadway audiences and continues to appeal to the young at heart everywhere. The energetic pop-influenced score by three-time Oscar®-winning composer/lyricist Stephen Schwartz (Godspell, Children of Eden, Wicked and the animated films Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame and The Prince of Egypt) bursts with one show stopping number after another, from soaring ballads to infectious dance numbers
