HE’S THE little boy who can never lie to Father Christmas about whether he’s been bad or good, and now he’s coming to the stage for a festive treat.
Norden Farm is welcoming the Indefinite Articles theatre company to present a new take on Pinocchio.
It will be both a live performance in the Maidenhead-based theatre and a live stream that people can enjoy at home.
The story needs little introduction: a carpenter wishes for a son, and his dream comes true when a puppet comes to life.
In this special one-man show, puppeteer Steve Tiplady is Pinocchio’s father, Geppetto, and he will carve him live on stage.
During the show, Steve will also enjoy a brush with a fox, and show how saws can become a giant shark.
Puppetry, shadows and illusion will combine with specially composed music to create a show for all ages.
Suitable for ages four upwards, it is performed from Tuesday, December 22, through to Christmas Eve, at 11.30am and 2pm.
Tickets are £13.50, £11.50 under 16s and Family & Friends Ticket (4 people) £46. Livestream tickets are £15 per household.
