The familiar story of a wooden puppet who yearns to be a real boy is based on Carlo Collodi's classic tale. This fast-paced version has music and lyrics by Neil Bartram and a book by Brian Hill. Even the youngest children will be enthralled by this colorful production as Pinocchio tumbles from one disastrous situation to another in search of adventure -- only to discover that, in the end, all he really needs is an unselfish heart and the love of his father. The show illuminates the bond between parents and children.
