SYCAMORE TOWNSHIP, OH (FOX19) - In its final production of the year, Sycamore High School’s award-winning Aves Theatre will present the comedic coming-of-age musical “Pippin” on April 18-20. Written by Steven Schwartz, the composer of other popular musicals such as “Wicked”, “Pippin” was originally produced on Broadway in 1973 and is currently enjoying a revival in New York, as well as on the stage at SHS.

“Aves Theatre’s production features senior Emily Kissela as the Narrator and freshman Alex Montchai in his Aves Theatre debut as Pippin,” said John Whapham, SHS drama teacher and theatre director.  “The show uses the premise of a mysterious performing troupe led by a villainous narrator to tell the story of a young man seeking fulfillment in his life.”

The musical offers subtle lessons of family values, portrayed through the cautionary tale of a young man running amuck.
