PIPPIN Announces A Second Extension Of Two Weeks  Image

There's more magic to do... as the producers of 'Pippin' today put two additional weeks of tickets on sale at London's exciting new outdoor theatre venue, The Garden Theatre.

Featuring an exceptional cast of West End performers, 'Pippin will now run until Sunday 11 October.

Press nights are Thursday 17 September at 8.30pm and Friday 18 September at 7.00pm

After launching with the sold-out, critically acclaimed musical 'Fanny and Stella' - which also extended its run twice due to overwhelming public demand - The Garden Theatre at The Eagle presents an exciting new production of the Broadway musical about a prince learning the true meaning of glory, love and war... 'Pippin' is an iconic and unforgettable musical masterpiece. It features an infectiously unforgettable score, including 'Magic to Do' and 'Corner of the Sky', from four-time Grammy winner, three-time Oscar winner and musical theatre giant Stephen Schwartz ('Wicked', 'Godspell'), who has given his blessing to perform the show for the first time ever with an ensemble cast of six.
