Gaithersburg Arts Barn Presents Pippin

Gaithersburg, MD. The Arts Barn, the City of Gaithersburg’s premiere cultural arts facility, presents a Kensington Arts Theatre 2nd Stage production of Pippin, with music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and book by Roger O. Hirson, running September 5 through 21, 2008. Shows will be held Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. at the Arts Barn, 311 Kent Square Road, Gaithersburg. Admission is $16, $14 for City of Gaithersburg residents.

Pippin, the son of Emperor Charlemagne, is on a quest to find his true calling. His search leads him through war, politics and love in a poignant and heart-warming musical that sweeps you along the journey with the young prince. From three-time Oscar winning composer/lyricist Stephen Schwartz (Godspell, the hit Disney films Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and The Prince of Egypt), Pippin bursts forth with one show-stopping number after another.

This show is suitable for ages 13 and up.
