My Son Pinocchio Jr
The Center for the Arts located at the corner of Church and College streets off of the square in Murfreesboro is proud to introduce Disney's MY SON PINOCCHIO Jr. The show presents an endearing twist on the classic tale of toymaker Geppetto and his little wooden puppet Pinocchio.
Starting May 9th through May 25th each Saturday matinee also has a luncheon themed after the raucous fun and games of Pleasure Island. Tickets for the luncheon include admission to the Saturday matinee performance as well as an opportunity to interact with the characters from the show, play games that will be part of the show, and get their picture with their favorite character.
This new musical, which retells the classic Disney story from Geppetto's perspective, features the beloved songs "When You Wish Upon a Star" and "I've Got No Strings," alongside a host of new songs by Oscar- and Grammy Award-winner Stephen Schwartz, tackling timely issues about what it means to be "the perfect child" and what it means to be "a real father."
Join the Blue Fairy, Stromboli and a lively cast of characters as Geppetto journeys beyond the toy shop to discover the meaning of family.
Disney's MY SON PINOCCHIO JR. is a magical mix of heartwarming fairy tale and action-packed adventure. Audiences will love following Pinocchio's journey from an awkward wooden puppet to a real live boy and will be charmed by Geppetto's transformation from demanding creator to real live father.
The Center for the Arts and the show's director, Amy Baltimore, insisted on making this theater experience a true Junior production and cast only children, ages 7 - 12. The Center for the Arts is very focused on theater education and works diligently to provide family-centered, child-appropriate opportunities for children to develop new skills and will continue to cultivate their love for theater by encouraging the development of talent these young people already possess. With musical director, Sam Hagler, and choreographer, Tucky Myhre, the creative team of MY SON PINOCCHIO Jr. has captured the magic of the timeless story and brought it to life for our community.
