🎭 Join us for Kirkwood Community College's fall musical, Pippin! Follow the young prince Pippin, heir to the throne, as he enters adulthood convinced he must find a truly extraordinary and fulfilling life. Guided by a mysterious troupe of performers, Pippin embarks on a quest for his "Corner of the Sky." He'll sample the glories of the battlefield, the temptations of the flesh, and the intrigues of political power, meeting memorable characters along the way.
