User Review - 10/10 by Private USchwartz and Fosse's broadway hit. Need I say more?
User Review - 10/10 by Vanessa ESadly, this isn't the original Fosse production. He and Stephen Schwartz fought so much that the instant he was gone, Schwartz mucked with it. silly boy.
User Review - 10/10 by Lisa KBen Vereen is THE ONLY leading player, in my mind. Chita Rivera is a great Fastrada, Martha Raye is great as the grandma, and who doesn't love that ridiculous mesh shirt that Pippin wears?? One of my favorite shows since we did it my senior yr of hs, and this is a spectacular version of it.
User Review - 10/10 by Ricky JFantastic show, great film. Ben Vereen is just amazing - especially in Glory. Damn I wish I could move like that, and make it look so easy.
User Review - 10/10 by Sean PI love this musical. I have not actually seen this version, but this is one of my favorites by far. I was just singing "Morning Glow" x) A classic musical without a doubt.
User Review - 10/10 by Brandon TI love it, it's so weird and funny and creepy and sexy and stylized and... FOSSE!!!
User Review - 10/10 by Scott BAll alone on a stage, Pippin is surrounded by the Leading Player and the various troupe members. They all suggest that Pippin complete the most perfect act ever: the Finale. They tell Pippin to jump into a box of fire, light himself up, and "become one with the flame." Pippin is reluctant, but agrees that perhaps suicide is the best way to go ("Finale"), but he is stopped by his natural misgivings and also by one actress from the troupe?the woman playing Catherine. Catherine and her son Theo stand by Pippin and defy the script, the Leading Player, and Fastrada. Pippin comes to the realization that the widow's home was the only place where he was truly happy ("Magic Shows and Miracles") "....I never came close my love". After removing the sets, lighting, makeup, and costumes from the stage (to no success at dissuading Pippin), The Leading Player becomes furious and calls off the show, telling the rest of the troupe and the orchestra to pack up and leave Pippin, Catherine, and her son alone on an empty, dark and silent stage. Pippin realizes that he has given up his extraordinary purpose for the simplest and most ordinary life of all, and he is finally a happy man.
User Review - 10/10 by Edith NAs much as I love "Godspell" and "Wicked," Pippin is composer/lyricist Stephen Schwartz most underrated musical. It is a show filled with incredible Fosse choreography, dynamite energy, flawless and enjoyable music, and great performances from the cast. The incomparable Ben Vereen steals the show as the Leading Player. But in the end, the story is relatable and deep. Seminal musical theatre!
User Review - 8/10 by Andrew JThe only thing I have to complain about is the fact they cut out some important parts of the story... such as the conversation with the severed head, and a prayer for a duck... And Martha Raye wasn't a good grandmother... Otherwise Pippin is my favorite Musical, and I have to be biased and say I loved it!
User Review - 8/10 by Caleb SFosse makes it so good...anyone else would make it so bad.
