Alumni offered discount to sultry summer performance

11:35 a.m., June 25, 2004--UD alumni now have even more reason to visit Ardentown’s New Candlelight Dinner Theatre this summer. During the run of “Pippin,” which continues through Sunday, Aug. 29, alumni will receive a 10-percent discount on admission to the dinner-and-show combo, courtesy of producer Robert Miller, BS ’65, MBA ’71.

A parable about coming of age in Charlemagne’s Holy Roman Empire, the play, which debuted on Broadway in 1972, remains a fast-paced favorite featuring high-energy dancing and music.
