Photos: Exclusive look at today's first 'Pippin' rehearsal

The cast of the highly anticipated first national touring production of the Tony-winning musical revival Pippin gathered for the first time today in New York. Director Diane Paulus, who is in Cambridge opening what is expected to be an eventual Broadway staging of Finding Neverland in Cambridge, Mass., addressed the cast and crew by video.

The Pippin cast and crew move to Denver in two weeks to begin preparations for the Sept. 6 opening in the Buell Theatre. The final casting announcement also was released today.
