It's a musical about "Pippin," aka Pepin the Hunchback, son of Charlemagne, the Roman emperor who essentially turned Christianity from a cult of heretics into a legally and culturally acceptable religion.



That's a video of the musical highlights of the show. There are no spoilers in it, I watched the whole thing to make sure. The musical came out in the early 70's and is very typical of that time -- it takes a historic subject and gives it a modern twist. Very little of the musical looks or sounds anything like it might be based on the life of a guy who lived in the year ~790 A.D. Another thing you really can't see from this video is that the music is stuffed full of very adult humor. It's absolutely hilarious. My mom made me sit through it when I was 9 and I was so bored because it was all totally incomprehensible to me. I saw it again as an adult and it quickly became one of my top 3 all time favourites.

I won't point-blank explain the secret to you, I'll let you look at that video and decide for yourself if you want to watch the musical and find out. I don't know of anywhere you can watch it online but it a live recording of the show from the original cast run IS on DVD (bonus fun fact: my mother was in the audience when they recorded it!)

Thank you for kindly sharing your vast knowledge.
It sounds my cup... no my humongous teapot kind of ... err, tea 8D

Good god, I have to watch it, if only for the costumes. Fabulous doesn't even cover it.

....and hilariously, I got the notification for this reply just as I've been listening to the soundtrack for the past 2 hours.

Some of these songs are like crack to me. I start them and I have to play them on repeat 15 times or more before I get distracted enough to let it move on to another song. XD
