Theater Review: Revival of ‘Pippin’ Still Has Magic to Do
Submitted by PatrickMcD on August 3, 2015 - 4:20pmCHICAGO – It is the simple, timeless stories that work best when they are mounted again on Broadway, and the musical “Pippin” stays true to that assertion. Taking the concepts and the songs from a play that debuted in 1972, and featuring one of those original cast members in a key role, the National Touring revival of “Pippin” is being performed in Chicago at the Cadillac Theatre until August 9th, 2015.
