¡Viva Pinocho!

What happens when the world's most mischievous puppet is born in Mexico, dreams of crossing to "The Other Side," and carries with him the blessing of the Virgin of Guadalupe? 

After its successful debut at the 4th International Puppet Fringe Festival NYC, Teatro SEA presents Viva Pinocho: A Mexican Pinocchio, a bilingual production in Spanish and English that reimagines the Pinocchio classic through the heart of the Latino experience. Written by Manuel Antonio Morán, this is far more than the story of a puppet who can't stop lying — it's the portrait of a family searching for each other, a community fighting to be seen, and a little boy — made of wood, yes — who discovers that the greatest act of courage is never forgetting who you are.
