A magical theatre experience coming in October

Cranbrook Community Theatre (CCT) is proud to present the Tony Award-Winning musical Pippin, a timeless story of self-discovery, adventure, and the search for meaning, set to the unforgettable music of Stephen Schwartz.

Directed by Sanjay Fisk, this production promises to captivate audiences with its dynamic performances, dazzling choreography, and enchanting storytelling October 4-6, 10-12, 16-19 at the Studio Stage Door in Cranbrook.

Pippin follows the journey of a young prince as he embarks on a quest to find purpose and significance in life. Along the way, he encounters love, war, and temptation, all while being guided by a mysterious group of performers.

With a mix of humour, heart, and spectacle, Pippin is a musical that has resonated with audiences for decades, offering a message of hope and resilience.

The musical Pippin holds a special place in the history of the Cranbrook Community Theatre and the Studio Stage Door heritage building it calls ‘home’. After a few years of renovations and staging productions in the main floor Studio in the late 70’s, it was the very first production ever staged in the upper theatre of the Stage Door in 1980.

When the theatre opened its doors, Pippin set the tone for the creative and vibrant performances that have since become the hallmark of this beloved venue. Its debut at the Studio Stage Door symbolized the beginning of a new era for the local arts scene, bringing Broadway magic to the heart of Cranbrook and establishing the theatre as a cornerstone of community culture.

This show promises to be a magical theatrical experience that will prove why Pippin continues to be a favourite among theatre lovers of all ages.

This season, tickets have price options for students, members and non-members as well as VIP passes to prepay for beverages sold in their concession, so attendees won’t need to remember to bring cash.
