Deaf West Theatre puts its own, unique spin on the classic story of a mischievous puppet who wishes to become a real, live boy. Tony Award winner Lee Hall (Billy Elliott) has created an adaptation steeped in the Italian tradition of commedia dell'arte - a form of physical comedy that lends itself perfectly to Deaf West Theatre's signature, award-winning combination of signed and voiced theater. Brimming with clever political subtext and sly social commentary, this comic production will appeal to all ages. (The Adventures of Pinocchio is rated “PG” for mild language and dark themes – recommended for ages 10+).
