We cannot tell a lie ~ Pinocchio at The Delaware Children’s Theatre is a fantastical, colorful production that will delight the entire family. Pinocchio, a heart-warming classic about a wooden puppet who dreams of becoming a little boy, comes to life as the Delaware Children’s Theatre celebrates their 40th season. Shows are every Saturday and Sunday at 2 pm through February 10th.
The show follows the classic story: Poor old Geppetto is such a kind, gentle fellow that the Blue Fairy makes it possible for his puppet, Pinocchio, to become a real boy. The problem is that Pinocchio meets up with the Cat and the Fox and keeps getting into trouble–and for some reason, his nose keeps growing! Pinocchio learns that being “real” means he must tell the truth.
The historic Delaware Children’s Theatre is located at 1014 Delaware Avenue in WIlmington. Tickets are $11 in advance and $14 at the door. www.dechildrenstheatre.org (302) 655-1014.
