WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Building on the traditional text of Italian author Carlo Collodi, Pinocchio unfolds with contemporary resonance through an imaginative fusion of spoken word, movement, masks, light and shadows, sound effects and music. Presented in the company's signature style, Pinocchio is a dark, surreal adult tale of a wooden boy who becomes a real man and embarks on an adventure of self-discovery in a world full of very real dangers.
