Pippin

See it if you like the show itself. Revival should have used Fosse's staging. Acrobatics didn't enhance, but it was good to have Pippin on Bway.

Don't see it if Worth seeing for the songs and insightful book (how to give life meaning). I missed the Fosse choreography, tho. Talented cast.

Also I'm catching up on plays I saw before joining S-S. Pippin was very good, but it would have been better with Fosse's staging (the snippets of his work were far superior to the new).... Read more Read less
