The Peninsula Players
Community Theatre on the Peninsula Since 1952
PINOCCHIO the panto
Geppetto, a woodworker and maker of toys, wanted nothing more than to have a child of his very own one day. He creates a wooden puppet that comes to life with the help of the Blue Fairy. Pinocchio, a very mischievous puppet whose nose grows whenever they tell a lie, gets into all types of trouble. Pinocchio’s conscience, Jiminy, tries to lead Pinocchio in the right direction but finds the job a little tougher than expected. As the story unfolds you will find an interesting range of characters such as Henry the Panto Horse, the always lovely Bella the Dame, and so many more as they try to either help, or lead astray, Pinocchio. Will Pinocchio ever get their wish of becoming a real child?
