PINOCCHIO AT THE NASSAU THEATRE Shows & Movies

Pinocchio Back By Popular Demand at the Nassau Theatre

"When you tell lies, your nose will grow!" - Elton John Duffy (Gepetto) and Nadine Sulaiman (Pinocchio) in a scene from Pinocchio, which is currently running at the Nassau Theatre.

After a completely sold out run at the Nassau Theatre in 2018, The Lilliput Children’s Theatre Company will be performing one of their most successful shows, PINOCCHIO for the school holidays. PINOCCHIO is back by popular demand and will run from Monday 25th March until Saturday 30th March at 10:30 am at the Nassau Theatre at Groote Schuur High School, in Palmyra Road, Newlands.

PINOCCHIO is based on the original Carlo Collodi classic of the little wooden puppet who has to prove himself to be honest, trustworthy before he can become a real live boy, with help and guidance from Jiminy Cricket and the Blue Fairy. Follow Pinocchio and Gepetto on their adventures to Stromboli’s Puppet Theatre and inside a whale.  Watch Pinocchio’s nose grow as he lies to Gepetto and see Jiminy Cricket magically turn into a life-size cricket. A fairytale classic for the whole family to enjoy over the school holidays.

Pinocchio is one of the world`s best-loved fairytales and is adapted and directed by Elton John Duffy, who has been producing Children`s Theatre and delighting audiences for the past 26 years. This is a true traditional fairytale with a modern twist. This production stars Desle Mc Conney (Athlone) as Jiminy Cricket, Almar Muller (Claremont) as the Fox, Elton John Duffy (Edgemead) as Gepetto and Stromboli, Buddy-Bo Butler (Fish Hoek) as the Blue Fairy and Cat and Nadine Sulaiman (Constantia) as Pinocchio.
