pinocchio
GEK TESSARO
50 minutes
Ages 6 and over
Visual theatre with live illustrations
The poetic interplay of live drawing and music recreates the dreamlike, lyrical journey of one of the most beautiful fairy tales of all time. An evocative journey that also serves as a tribute to Fiorenzo Carpi, composer of the soundtrack to Comencini’s unforgettable Pinocchio.
A timeless story in which the irreverent Gek Tessaro takes the liberty of changing the ending.

But here comes some lovely music
–
You can hear a band singing and playing
Pinocchio says, ‘I’ll just stop for a moment’
Because theatre is a wonderful game
but the more wonderful a game is, the shorter it lasts
Because here comes the terrifying Mangiafuoco
