A host of Broadway stars performed Songs from Pippin: A Gala Concert April 8 at Symphony Space's Peter Jay Sharp Theater.
The evening featured Zachary Noah Piser (KPOP) singing the title role, Tony winner J. Harrison Ghee (Some Like it Hot) as Leading Player, Kate Baldwin (Hello, Dolly!) as Fastrada, Tony winner Judy Kaye (The Phantom of the Opera) as Berthe, Christopher Sieber (Shrek the Musical) as Charles, Adrianna Hicks (Some Like It Hot) as Catherine, and Sid Kamat (Blues Clues) as Theo.
Tony winner Danny Burstein hosted the event, produced and directed by Annette Jolles and Joel Fram, with musical direction by Paul Staroba.
Songs From Pippin was the centerpiece of Symphony Space's 2024 spring gala. Proceeds from the event help Symphony Space's mission to support the NYC community by creating, commissioning, and presenting engaging and impactful programming.
Pippin features a book by Roger O. Hirson and music and
lyrics by Stephen Schwartz. Telling a fanciful (and fictitious) version
of the life of the son of Holy Roman Emperor Charlemagne, the 1972
musical introduced such songs as "Corner of the Sky," "Magic to Do,"
"Simple Joys," "Morning Glow," and "Extraordinary."
