La Puntual. Putxinel.lis de Barcelona, Sant Pere, Santa Caterina i la Ribera, Ciutat Vella
Puppets, shadows, music and a Pinocchio who is built live on stage. Steve Tiplady, playing Geppetto, uses objects from his carpentry workshop to tell the story of the puppet who wanted to become a real boy. Come and discover how an apparently ordinary piece of wood becomes a mischievous, curious character eager for adventure. During the show, Pinocchio will face cunning foxes and giant sharks, learn the importance of telling the truth and discover how far a father's unconditional love can reach. A proposal full of improvisation that makes every performance unique and unrepeatable. Special session Saturday 30 October - 12:00: show + discussion + free workshop. Artistic team.
