Pinocchio on the Road<\/h2>\n\n\n

Once upon a time there was a carpenter. Actually, no! Once upon a time there was an inventor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our show about Pinocchio, the wooden puppet's classic adventure becomes that of a modern-day child, constantly torn between duty and play, innocent to the point of falling into the hands of any town bully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pinocchio is therefore a robot child; the Cat and the Fox are two punk rockers devoted to snatching bags; Lampwick is a suburban kid with a bit of Piotta about him. The Talking Cricket, like a storyteller, introduces the events about to unfold through a huge illustrated book that forms the set of the show. Other characters include a giant Fire-Eater with his puppet theatre and the Blue Fairy, who flies across the stage like a butterfly, gently guiding Pinocchio back onto the right path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Pinocchio is therefore conceived as an event for audiences of all ages, in which the performers use stilts, imposing sets, fireworks and elements of dance theatre to create a show driven entirely by visual imagery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside the version designed for large spaces, we have also created a theatrical version of Pinocchio on the Road, with particular emphasis on the elements aimed at children, making it suitable for children\u2019s theatre festivals and programmes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
