About the Cambridge Theatre
The Cambridge Theatre is as irregular-looking as the triangular site it was built on, an unusual shape for a venue and a hugely exciting space in which to enjoy a big, bold, endlessly popular production like this one. Past shows at the Cambridge Theatre include the top class musical theatre classics Grease, Fame, and Chicago.
Benefitting from a concert staging which includes a full orchestra and choir (drawn from the ArtsEd school), Stephen Schwartz’s tale of PIPPIN the young medieval prince who learns about life while searching for happiness and fulfilment, hits the Theatre Royal Drury Lane for 2 nights only, in celebration of its milestone half century.
The musical version of the comedy time travel story that’s inspired millions has been on stage in the West End for an entire year. In celebration they’ve extended the show, this time until 23rd July 2023. It goes to prove this is a musical to reckon with, a story people love whatever their age, and a treat for everyone who loves cool special effects. Now there’s more time to see it for yourself.
