WHAT:
From Fame, to Hairspray, to last year's stunning version of Hello Dolly!, Lusher's annual Fall Musical has become an institution. This year, a cast of students accompanied by Lusher's own stage crew and orchestra presents Pippin, and it's as likely to amaze as it is to sell out.

Pippin is a musical about a prince who learns the true meaning of glory, love and war in this iconic musical allegory with an infectiously unforgettable score from the four-time Grammy-winner, three-time Oscar-winner, and musical theatre giant Stephen Schwartz.
