About
Pinocchio, now grown up, invites audiences into his workshop to recount his adventures as a puppet. This family show combines hand puppets, marionettes, and Chinese shadow theater on a single stage, adapting Carlo Collodi's classic tale in the writer's bicentennial year, narrated directly by the protagonist, with original music by Octavi Rumbau.
