The journey to discover one's purpose in life is a long adventure. As Pippin, the son of Charlemagne, tries to find his purpose through war, sex, and politics, he stumbles upon love, which ultimately fulfills his empty heart. All the elements from the music and choreography to the set design make this production a success. Pippin is a marvelous, heroic, musical drama that has elements of humor that shows disconnect between the imaginary and reality, as well as a reoccurring theme of family reunification
Favorite Character My favorite character in the The Lord Of The Rings is the hobbit Peregrine Took or Pippin. Pippin is my favorite because he is considered the clumsy one of the group, the comical relief in the book, and whenever they are in a tight situation or in an intense moment pippin is reliable to make some sort of mistake.
