A Children's Theatre Production
~Here comes the most inventive version of Pinocchio ever! Take the hi-jinks of the comedy, add those zany characters - including Geppetto, Fire Eater, Fox and Cat, and the most wonderful Blue Fairy imaginable - then mix in a non-stop adventure, and you're all set to raise the curtain. The house-on-fire pacing will leave you breathless, the hilarious comedy will leave you laughing, and some unexpectedly touching moments will leave you loving this Pinocchio even more. You really haven't seen Pinocchio until you have seen this new sparkling version!

DIRECTOR'S NOTE
Welcome to PINOCCHIO, the third production under the guise of Children's Theatre at RHS. I am very happy to have you with us at this performance. We all feel that PINOCCHIO is a special production and hope you, your family members and friends will agree. The students and staff have worked hours and hours again, joining forces to make this show a reality. What makes these last two Children's Theatre productions special is that we are joined by two young men who are NOT students at RHS. Andrew Newman is a 7th grader at Rosemount Middle and Peter Ingles is a 3rd grader at Greenleaf Elementary. We have enjoyed working with them at the high school level and hope their experience is one they will take with them for the rest of their lives.
Time to settle in and enjoy this non-stop adventure tale, both delightfully funny and unexpectedly touching. After the show, we invite all of you to enter the world of PINOCCHIO by coming on stage and seeing the show from a new perspective and talking with the characters and the technical crew of the show.
Thank you on behalf of the cast, crew and staff for attending PINOCCHIO!
