Pinocchio
and the Most Valuable Lesson
Join Pinocchio as he learns bravery and self-acceptance in a new chapter of this classic tale. Complete with original music and humor, the wooden puppet’s adventures start the day before school begins. With the help of Geppetto, his cricket friend, and his schoolteacher, he learns how to face his fears and do what’s right in this tale of courage. This 50-minute musical features professional actors supported by an ensemble of our kids’ drama camp participants. The audience has the opportunity to meet the cast after the show.
