Pinocchio
Based on the traditional tale by Carlo Collodi, the little wooden puppet is brought to life in this exciting adventure.
Geppetto, the most famous puppet maker in Italy, has always dreamed about creating a very special puppet- one that could walk and talk without strings. When his lazy apprentice, Candlewick, finds a log of wood that can speak, work starts on it immediately!

What our customers say...
"Thanks so much to West Midlands Childrens Theatre Company for putting on their excellent show “Sigurd and the Dragon” this morning in our school. From the first moment we entered the room the children (some of whom were dressed as Vikings) were enthralled and excited. The enthusiastic energy from the cast quickly captured the children’s attention and they participated brilliantly throughout."
- Ballyellis National School, Co. Wexford
"ONLINE" Productions
Birthed during the pandemic, due to a demand for virtual theatre, our "Online" series of productions have proved incredibly popular! For a one-off fee, the entire school has access to the online performance to bring the thrill of theatre to each classroom at a time that suits them! Unlike other virtual productions, we give you a whole month (often longer) to watch the performance with an unlimited number of views!
For some productions, we also supply activity packs, lesson ideas and a teacher's guide to audience participation throughout the performance.
