Connetquot Presents ‘Pippin’

A large group of people gathered together on a stage and smiling thumbnail244153

Under the direction of Jennifer Destio, producer Brad Drinkwater and vocal music director James Nagle, the Connetquot High School Musical Theatre Club’s talented cast and crew drew packed audiences for “Pippin,” held in the Eric L. Martinsen Auditorium on March 16-18.

Based on the book by Roger O. Hirson and music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, “Pippin” originally hit the Broadway stage during the 2013 revival and is now presented by special arrangement with Music Theatre International. As in the original production, the Leading Player of a performance troupe (Mia Lange) tells the story of Pippin (Vincent Keddy), a young prince who searches for meaning and significance in his life. The play includes the same original characters essential to the story, including the father Charlemagne (Adam Aurelio), stepmother Fastrada (Gabrielle Aiello), paternal grandmother Berthe (Kamryn Goncalves), Fastrada’s dim-witted son Lewis (Jack Dowdell) and many others. The show also included the lyrics of the plays most famous songs, including “Corner of the Sky,” “Magic to Do” and “Spread a Little Sunshine.”

The success of the play was also due to the pit orchestra, under the direction of Gregory Johnson, choreographer Katy Snair and stage crew, sound and technical adviser Peter Coffin.
