Pinocchio by Barking Dog Theatre

Interactive theatre for 5–10 years

28 March 2025
Barking Dog

Gepetto is lonely, so he decides to make himself a son out of wood. He names him Pinocchio, who then magically comes to life.

Barking Dog's two talented actors (with the help of some puppets and children from the audience) present this exciting tale of the little wooden puppet Pinocchio. We follow his adventures as he tries to make money fast, hitches a ride on a parrot, turns into a donkey and gets swallowed by a shark; all while trying to become a "Real Boy".

With original music and audience participation, as well as puppetry and mime, this fun and interactive show supports the primary school curriculum. Story by Carlo Collodi and adapted by Mike Brooks.

Booking Information

The show starts at 11.30am and runs for approximately 55 minutes. Tickets are free; please note: all seats have to be booked. To book, email thedockboxoffice@gmail.com or call the Box Office on 071 965 0828.
