Pinocchio
Presented by Cumbernauld Theatre Company
Sat 23 Nov – Sun 29 Dec 2024
All Pinocchio has ever wanted is to be a real boy. But hold on…if he wants things, surely that means he has thoughts and feelings. And if he has thoughts and feelings, then doesn’t that mean he has a brain and a heart?
Join Pinocchio on this raucous, silly and hugely entertaining journey. Sing along with him as he meets friends, old and new, and finds out what it means to be a real boy in this fun-packed Festive show.
