Pinocchio

Puppetry, shadows, illusion and specially-composed music combine to create a show with something for all ages.

Steve Tiplady, as Geppetto, uses the objects of a carpenter’s workshop to tell the tale of the puppet that wants to be a real boy, and the puppet-maker who wants to be a real father.

Pinocchio is carved on stage, brushes become a fox and the shadow of two saws transforms into a giant shark. An element of improvisation makes each performance unique to its audience. It’s inventive, visually and verbally witty, with a big heart.
