What is the family musical Pinocchio about? 

"Make the impossible possible!"

Gepetto is a bit of an outcast in his traditional hometown - independent and unconventional, he dreams of something more. One day, Gepetto carves himself a friend in the form of a wooden puppet, whom he names Pinocchio. Together, the two set off on a series of adventures, hoping to find a place where they belong. Along the way they meet a number of weird, wacky and wonderful characters who each teach them something new! As Pinocchio, Gepetto and their new friends learn how to love and build a community, Gepetto discovers it may take a wooden boy to teach him what it really means to be human.

The character of Pinocchio is now a beloved cultural icon, but did you know he first appeared in a novel titled The Adventures of Pinocchio by Italian writer Carlo Collodi, all the way back in 1883? The story of Pinocchio has since been adapted many times into novels, films, pantomimes and stage plays, with the most famous portrayal being the 1940s classic Disney animated film. This brand-new musical adaptation tells the story of Pinocchio like never before! Sweet, heartfelt and funny, Pinocchio is perfect for all the family this festive season. Secure your tickets today!
