In a reimagined
Pippin on Broadway, director
Diane Paulus brings new and old to the coming-of-age musical: She weaves new circus elements with Bob Fosse-style choreography based on the original 1972 production. Paulus sought out
Chet Walker, himself a member of the original company of the
Stephen Schwartz classic, to channel the work of the master choreographer Fosse. Paulus, Walker, cirque creator
Gypsy Snider and stars
Patina Miller and
Matthew James Thomas talk about the techniques and experience of melding the two worlds. Read the Playbill
interview with Paulus at the time of the A.R.T. tryout of
Pippin.
