"Pinocchio
was fantastic! The
story really comes alive, as Lorenzo invites you to see his
show! The audience helps Pinocchio locate Hickory, there's a
puppeteer with live puppets, kindly Gepetto, mischievous kids, and so
much more. The swallowing by the whale was astonishing!" Audience
Member, Sutter Street Theatre, Pinocchio, 2009. |

"I am really taken with your wonderfully theatrical and hugely
imaginative version of Pinocchio and our Espanola Little Theatre
Young Company would like to do it!"

One
lonely night the Blue Fairy grants Geppetto's wish
and brings his wooden
puppet to life. So begins Pinocchio's
journey as he tangles with tricksters,
Fox and Cat, and Lampwick and
his no-good buddies in the Land of Toys.
Will he save Geppetto
from the belly
of
the whale? Will he ever prove
that he is good enough to become a Real Boy? |
