Pinocchio
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.
Puppetry, shadows, illusion and specially composed music combine to create a show with something for all ages; it’s inventive visually and verbally, witty with a big heart. 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.
Watford Palace Creative Associate Scamp Theatre collaborate with award winning Indefinite Articles, who are at the forefront of the new wave of British puppetry and its members have worked with the RSC, Improbable Theatre and the Mighty Boosh.
