PINOCCHIO

Adapted by Louise Warren from Carlo Collodi
Directed by Alex Martin
Performed by Steve Tiplady
Music by Giles Leaman and Hannah Marshall
Edinburgh run Jonathan Lambert and Steve Kettley


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
