Based on Carlo Collodi’s Classic
Written and directed by Hugo Bélanger
English translation by Bobby Theodore
A production of Tout à Trac
in co-production with Place des Arts and Tennessee Performing Arts Center
Following the internationally acclaimed Alice in Wonderland, Tout à Trac now revisits Collodi’s tale about the world’s most famous puppet: PINOCCHIO.
Born from a talking piece of wood carved by the old Geppetto, the rebellious, cheeky and careless PINOCCHIO discovers the meaning of growing up through a thousand trials. To become a real boy, he will have to face Mangiafuoco, the terrible Puppet Master, suffer the malice of Mr. Fox and his sidekick, the Cat, escape from Toyland and save his father from the belly of the giant fish!
PINOCCHIO from Tout à Trac is another amazing journey into the heart of childhood and imagination…
