Pinocchio

Synopsis:
enacted by a troupe of Commedia dell'arte actors and set to a joyful score, Collodi's beloved tale comes to life in the form of Geppeto's wooden creation, mischievous Pinocchio. Navigating the treacherous world, Pinocchio encounters a double-crossing fox and cat, an evil coachman, and a ravenous dogfish. But for every deceitful character, Pinocchio finds compassion and wisdom from those who love him, helping him through his misadventures so that he can learn the value of hard work and family on his way to becoming a real boy.
