Pippin at Factory Theatre

Factory Theatre stages Stephen Schwartz's *Pippin* this November — the musical that won four 2013 Tony Awards and still asks the same restless question: what does it take to find a life that feels like your own?

The story

Young Pippin searches for happiness and fulfillment amid a troupe of actors who may or may not have his best interests at heart. Unforgettable songs, sharp choreography, and themes that land whether you're 18 or 58. Schwartz's catalogue (*Wicked*, *Godspell*) already has a Toronto following; this is the chance to see *Pippin* in an intimate Factory house rather than a touring barn.

When and where

November 15–22, 2026 at Factory Theatre, 125 Bathurst Street. Tickets from about $35 via factorytheatre.ca. Bathurst streetcar or a short walk from Queen West puts you at the door.

Why go

It's a compact run — about a week — so hesitate and you'll miss it. Ideal for musical fans who want something between Broadway touring scale and tiny Fringe rooms.
