Step into a world of magic and wonder with Pippin!
Young prince Pippin is on a quest to find his true purpose in life: a journey filled with adventure, love, and the search for extraordinary meaning. As he navigates the pressures of royal expectations and the allure of a simple, happy life, Pippin discovers that fulfilment might lie in the most unexpected places. Moving through a world of dazzling magic, captivating performances, and heartfelt emotion, Pippin explores the complexities of ambition, identity, and what it truly means to be extraordinary.
Winner of four Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival, Pippin is a timeless and visually stunning musical that combines whimsy with a deeper exploration of life’s most pressing questions.
This amateur production of Pippin is presented by arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). www.mtishows.co.uk
This production is suitable for ages 12 and over.

The ADC Theatre is Britain's oldest University playhouse, today administered and maintained by the University of Cambridge. Plays have been presented on the site since 1855, when the Cambridge University Amateur Dramatic Club (CUADC) was founded, and the society met and performed in the back room of the Hoop Inn, which stood almost exactly where the ADC Theatre stands today. Today, the ADC Theatre is the centre of University drama in Cambridge, run almost entirely by students with no Faculty involvement.
