Theatre MSU presents Pippin

Pippin will round out the Theatre MSU season. Partnering with the MSU Music Department, Pippin was actually the first musical staged in McComas Hall once it was officially complete, so this musical is a tribute to our 60th year in McComas Hall Theatre. We are excited about the partnership and think it's a great way to honor the history of the performing arts here at MSU.
