Carlo Collidi’s classic tale of a wooden puppet is given new life by the bright performers of Children’s Musical Theater (CMT) Junior Talents, all ages between seven to ten. Directed by CMT alumnus Jack Gunter (who recently played Evan Hansen in CMT Marquee’s Dear Evan Hansen), this production of Pinocchio utilizes inventive puppetry to respin the enchanting tale. Created by the lonely toymaker Geppetto, Pinocchio tumbles through one disastrous adventure to the next, until he finds that all he really needs is an unselfish heart, open to love. Performances run for one week, Wednesday through Sunday.
