A new version by Jennifer Lunn
Welsh translation by Hanna Jarman

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 new retelling of Pinocchio is packed with music, laughter, and a host of much-loved characters, brought to life by an actor-musician cast. With an informal setting and seating on mats, benches and chairs, Pinocchio is the perfect introduction to the wonder of live theatre for children aged 3–6 and their families.

 

Performed in Welsh and English at separate performances.
