For Walker's involvement with the current Broadway revival of Pippin, he received both the Drama Desk Award and the Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Choreography. This season, he celebrates 15 years as Director of the Jazz/Musical Theatre Dance program at the Pillow. Don't miss this one-night-only show!
