A joyful new musical retelling of Pinocchio for children aged 3–6 and their families, packed with songs, laughter and festive fun.
A new version by Jennifer Lunn. Pinocchio longs to be real so he can explore the big wide world. He wants to be "good, kind and true", but after a tiny fib makes his nose grow, he runs away on a whirlwind adventure of snowballs, silly games, mischievous new friends and chaotic fun. Will he learn the difference between right and wrong and make it home in time for Christmas?
This joyful retelling is packed with music, laughter and much-loved characters, brought to life by an actor-musician cast. With an informal setting and seating on mats, benches and chairs, it's the perfect introduction to live theatre for children aged 3–6. Performed in Welsh and English at separate performances.
