Yes, folks, it's that time of year again: Showtime. If you've driven by O'Hara in the last two weeks or so, you might have seen a sign that looks kind of like this:
It's cool, right? Yes! It's advertising our spring production of the musical Pippin!
For the last week or so, my life has basically been consumed by Pippin rehearsals. Not that I mind at all, because a) I love being in the show, b) I love going to show practice, and c) I love Pippin.
Our story begins with a jovial trope of actors putting on a play about the life and times of young Prince Pippin of the Holy Roman Empire. Pippin believes he is destined for greatness, and led by the crafty Leading Players, goes on an exciting quest to find his destiny. After a few hilarious and horrifying wrong turns, the young prince finds fulfillment in the most unexpected of places.
Pippin has it all: A fantastic score by Stephen Schwartz (of Godspell and Wicked fame, and my favorite composer), plenty of laughs, clever dialogue, amazing dancing in the style of Bob Fosse, and a magnificent set created by our stage crew. I don't mean to brag, but if you've ever been to an O'Hara show, you know they're always a treat. So be there. For goodness' sake, people, I made a tutu specifically for this occasion. You can't miss this one.
You can catch Pippin at O'Hara on Friday, March 23 and Saturday, March 24 at 8:00 PM, Sunday, March 25 at 2:00 PM, and Friday, March 30 and Saturday, March 31 at 8:00 PM! Tickets are $12 each ($10 for the Sunday matinee). Seating is assigned, so get your tickets now!!!! for the best seats!
