Pinocchio

By Carlo Collodi

Review By Ernest Edwards

Pinocchio is fun for all ages. Pinocchio is the most fun you will have on stage.

The production of Pinocchio playing at the Children’s Theater Company is so creative and magical. Before the play begins, the stage looks like a show where the scenery is still under construction. The cast comes out in work clothes for painting the scenery. They are surprised to see us in the audience. Even more surprised to hear that everyone present has a ticket. This group of 5 decides to put on the play for us. 

With minimal props, scenery, costumes and make up, they put on a wonderful, creative and magical production of

the play Pinocchio for us. The stage production had everything that I could remember about the story of Pinocchio, the wooden puppet who wanted to be a real boy. 

The cast was so great! They made us all feel welcome and were having fun telling us this familiar story. 

For the production I went to the cast included Antonisia (Nisi) Collins, Reed Sigmund, Autumn Ness, Chauncey Thomas and Victor Zupanc. 

With keeping with the theme, when the play was over, the cast politely asked the audience to leave so they could continue to work on the scenery. It was such a great concept for telling the story. 

With a run time of 90 minutes, plus a 15 minute intermission, this is great fun for the whole family. 

The play runs through October 18, 2026. Check out www.childrenstheatre.org for tickets. This play is not to be missed.
