Pinocchio

Once upon a time, there was a lonely old man and there was a piece of wood. There was also a desire to have someone close to Gepetto's heart. From this desire Pinocchio was born.

Pinocchio is a funny doll with perfectly carved head, hands and legs but without a heart. However, the doll’s little brain prevents him from making the right decisions. Not being able to realize the consequences of his bad behavior, this egocentric child – doll escapes from home and his father – Gepetto, to experience a tempting feeling of freedom. He does not know that his fortune will make  a circle and he will have a hankering for his father in the end.

There are stories which are a sign of time and there are stories which are timeless. The story created by Collody is alive and inspiring. The show is a tale about growing up and about love that make sense to human’s life.
