We're talking Pippin today, and we're joined by David M. Perry and Matthew Gabriele, historians and authors of books you should read! We're here today to talk about Pippin, the musical about the son of Charlemagne, music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, book by Roger O. Hirson and Bob Fosse, as well as original direction/choreography by Fosse. To round it out, our guests have just released a book they wrote on the sons and grandsons of Charlemagne, called Oathbreakers!
