The house-on-fire pacing will leave you breathless, the hilarious comedy will leave you laughing, and some unexpectedly touching moments will leave you loving this Pinocchio even more. This show is a satisfying and stylish play, offering directors exciting opportunities for creative staging and the actors a variety of plum roles. Learn More
