PIPPIN
Reviews
"Deliciously Staged - Top Level Talent!”
- Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune
“PIPPIN is a hyper-intimate exploration of larger-than-life topics. Bolstered by Brenda Didier’s Bob Fosse-inspired choreography, PIPPIN is defined throughout by Donterrio Johnson’s sinewy seducer-in-chief. Johnson’s alluring call for the audience to “join us” bears heeding.”
- Catey Sullivan, Chicago Sun Times
“Mercury's production of PIPPIN has carved out an intimate ‘Corner of the Sky.”
- Rachel Weinberg, Broadway World
“PIPPIN is breathtaking in its own right, and filled with an ensemble that brings in a potent blend of smarts, sexiness and a soupcon of sadness.”
- Kerry Reid, Windy City Times
"You should not miss the opportunity to catch this audience engaging production. Mercury Theater Chicago is 'On the Right Track' with this show!"
- Paul Lisnek, WGN Radio
“A small stage makes Mercury Theater Chicago’s PIPPIN great”
- Jack Helbig, Chicago Reader
“Venus is definitely coming into alignment with Mercury. This “PIPPIN” is a crowning achievement!”
- Ed Tracy, Picks in Six
“One of the most creative and entertaining productions of the season. PIPPIN hits the bulls-eye, and joins with the revival of “Avenue Q” at the Mercury Theater to offer local playgoers and tourists the best double bill of the season.”
- Dan Zeff, Chicagoland Theater Reviews
