ASRHS Drama Has Some Spring Musical “Magic to Do” Just for You


AYER/SHIRLEY, MA: ASRHS Drama Club’s next production is the Tony Award-winning Stephen Schwartz musical, “PIPPIN.”  As told by a traveling troupe of actors led by a cunning and charming Leading Player, “PIPPIN” is the story of a young prince, heir to the throne of King Charlemagne. Pippin certain he is extraordinary, is searching for his own “corner of the sky.” He attends university certain that he will find a fulfilling purpose in life, but it falls short. He dabbles in battle, licentious entanglements and savvy political maneuvers, but only discover that true happiness is more complicated than he thought. “PIPPIN” is both a humorous allegory about growing up and a dark tale of the danger of false appearances and empty promises.

Says Senior Chris Govang, who is portraying the Leading Player as well as acting as dance captain and serving as one of the Co-Presidents of the ASRHS Drama Club, “It’s a really fun show, and getting to work with people who share my enthusiasm for it is fantastic.”  The cast also includes Julia Alo, Alexis Blackwell, Lolly Capasso, Alexis Feigley, DeJah Fleurancois, Theresa Krifka-Dobes, Jerry Maillet, Anthony Mavilia, Meliyah Marinez, Mason Pyatt, Claudia Ramos-Mercado, Kate Reardon, Gaby Rosales, Maggie Serratore, Ava Sherriff, Cassidy Wenstrom and Kyrie Wick.
