Acrobatics, magic and music arrive at the Honeywell Center Sunday, March 5, in the Tony Award-winning production “Pippin.”

Through song and circus performances, the musical tells the story of Pippin, a young prince portrayed by Naysh Fox on a journey to find passion and adventure.

The Leading Player, portrayed by actress Housso Semon, sets the scene by not only controlling the characters, but the audience members as well.

NORTH MANCHESTER - Last summer, Bill Leonhard and his wife Denise ordered a line of spring clothing for their store, Cottage Creations, not knowing if they would have space to sell it.

After discussions with Matt Mize, owner of the building Cottage Creations is located in, the Leonhards were able to expand their business and open a boutique.

“The major part of the expansion is the boutique. My wife and I talked about it last summer and ordered the spring clothes, and then I went to Matt [Mize] and told him I was expanding my inventory and was interested in renting more space if he ever moved,” Leonhard said.
