The Adventures of Pinocchio
by Jonathan Dove and Alasdair Middleton
“Funny, poignant, tuneful, spectacular...Beg, borrow, steal or preferably buy a ticket.” The Times
The irresistible story of the wooden boy who longs to be real is brought bursting to life in this musical tale for all the family. Enter a fairytale world full of colourful characters, and join Pinocchio on his quest to become a real boy. Guided by the Blue Fairy and chirruping Cricket, Pinocchio still can’t help tumbling nose first into trouble: he’s tricked by the sly Fox and clever Cat, his lying nose is pecked by woodpeckers, he’s captured in the Big Green Fisherman’s net and is even turned into a performing donkey! Spellbinding music, memorable songs and a magical set shape this fantastical production, which captures all the inventiveness and charm of the original 1880’s creation.
