The Adventures of Pinocchio
January 3rd 2008 08:00
In this world premiere of Pinocchio, award winning composer Jonathan Dove and playwright Alasdair Middleton turn Carlo Collodi's classic into a fantastical musical story, which recaptures the weird and wonderful qualities of the 1880s original.
'For a long time I have thought that the tale of Pinocchio would make a marvellous opera, one that appeals to the whole family... Marionette-dances, fairground-rides, assassins giving chase; terrifying men and a captivating girl; crime and punishment, remorse and reconciliation - it's all a gift for a composer." - Jonathan Dove.
Featuring a large cast covering the 27 named roles, this is a spectacular event for the entire family!
