CARVED, AN ADAPTATION OF CARLO COLLODI’S PINOCCHIO

July 25, 2024 - August 04, 2024

Times and locations vary, see below. Be sure to bring a lawn chair or blanket to our outdoor performances!

FREE and appropriate for all ages!

An enchanted stick is carved into existence by a grief ridden woodworker. Seeing the human world through new eyes, this mystical being goes on an adventure to discover what it means to be “real” inside of a world filled with twists and tangles. Mistakes are made but returns to a magical repair shop offer chances to try again. Our characters learn to build a compass for living life, with guidance from the spirits of the natural world.
