Artist's Note:
This artwork is inspired by an exuberant theatrical production of the show “PIPPIN” staged at the Lyric Theatre in Sydney (Dec. 2020). Glad to have seen the show early in the season because its run was cut short by Covid.
Jeez, all of the work that those wonderful artists, musicians, production, creatives and management put into that fabulous show. The production deserved a longer run.
What talented people!
I do so love excellence in no matter what form it comes.
I’ve glued my front row ticket (thanks John) to the canvas.
It deserves to be there. Loved it.
In Pippin a young Prince goes on a journey,
in a sense to find himself, only to ultimately discover
what he is looking for in the simple life of home.
Pippin’s travails are a burst of colour to say the least. - N.
