A host of Broadway stars perform Songs from Pippin: A Gala Concert April 8 at 8 PM at Symphony Space's Peter Jay Sharp Theater.
The evening features Zachary Noah Piser (KPOP) singing the title role, Tony winner J.

Tony winner Danny Burstein hosts the event, which is produced and

Songs From Pippin is the centerpiece of Symphony Space's
2024 spring gala. Proceeds from the event will 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."
Concert-only tickets start at $75, and reception and ticket packages are also available here.
