The NAA is excited to collaborate with the Firehouse Center of the Arts to celebrate the Firehouse’s production of Pippin! Works on display reflect the aesthetics and themes of the play, which will run nineteen shows. Art will be displayed in the upper lobby of the Firehouse, overlooking Waterfront Park, by the theater entrance.
Pippin synopsis (from the Firehouse website):
Heir to the Frankish throne, the young prince Pippin is in search of the secret to true happiness and fulfillment. He seeks it in the glories of the battlefield, the temptations of the flesh and the intrigues of political power (after disposing of his father, King Charlemagne the Great). In the end, though, Pippin finds that happiness lies not in extraordinary endeavors, but rather in the unextraordinary moments that happen every day.
