Ever popular Pinocchio returns!

Come and share in the adventures of Pinocchio, the cute, naughty wooden marionette carved by the marionette maker Ghepetto from a very special log of wood. There is a mysterious Blue Fairy that appears to Pinocchio in many different guises to warn him about dangerous things. Meet his duck friend Gina who tries to look after him, the sly fox and the dim-witted cat who want to steal all his money, and the bad-tempered policeman who chases him. And then there is a naughty little boy, Candlewick, who convinces Pinocchio to not go to school, a bad charioteer who changes them into donkeys and sells them to a bad-tempered circus proprietor.

There are also marionettes and circus artists, to name but a few, and don’t forget about Cricket, Frog and the strange bird, or the giant monster fish that swallows Papa Ghepetto when he goes searching for Pinocchio. Will Pinocchio be able to save his daddy? You will have to come and see for yourself if he succeeds in doing this.
