Pinocchio (by Indefinite Articles)
Steve Tiplady, as Geppetto, uses the objects of a carpenter’s workshop to tell the tale of the puppet that wants to be a real boy, and the puppet-maker who wants to be a real father.
Pinocchio is carved on stage, brushes become a fox and the shadow of two saws transforms into a giant shark. An element of improvisation makes each performance unique to its audience.
Puppetry, shadows, illusion and especially composed music combine to create a show with something for all ages; it’s inventive, visually and verbally witty with a big heart.
“Wonderful work that celebrates the possibilities of theatre” — Lyn Gardner, The Guardian.
“Truly magical…captivating…hauntingly real” — The Scotsman.
