When you wish upon a star your dreams come true! Geppetto dreams of a family to call his own. Can his little wooden puppet Pinocchio become a real boy – and the child Geppetto has always wanted? Join The Blue Fairy (with her team of Fairies in Training!), Stromboli, and a wild cast of characters as Geppetto journeys beyond the toyshop to discover the meaning of family. 

This new musical, which retells the classic Disney story from Geppetto’s perspective, features the classic songs from the movie, plus new songs by Oscar winner and Grammy Award winner, Stephen Schwartz (Wicked, Pippin).

BONUS: Jyl's Photo Booth will be there Sunday, April 21st for both shows, so you can get free photos with the cast!
