Pinocchio - A Special FREE EventTrinity University Dept of Human Communication and Theatre

Playwright(s): by Caro Collodi - Performed by Stieren Guest Artists Teatro del Drago

Teatro del Drago, will present a special production of Pinocchio that merges the classic story by Carlo Collodi and 12 images created by the French artist Alain Letort. Through music, actors, puppets, puppeteers, and shadow theatre, Teatro Del Drago has translated Pinocchio into a delightful and magical theatrical adventure that has travelled throughout the globe and finally makes its American Premiere at Trinity University.

Cast:Based in Ravenna, Italy, Teatro del Drago is the puppet theatre company of the Monticelli family, established in 1820 by Ariodante Monticelli. Today, brothers Mauro and Andrea represent the fifth generation in this unbroken family tradition. Teatro del Drago follows two distinct artistic directions: tradition and experimentation. The tradition that informs their art and craft is as ancient as that of the Roman theatre, the Italian puppet theatre, and Commedia dell'Arte. But Teatro del Drago is also at the forefront of experimentation with their ability to combine puppetry and shadow, text and physical performance, making Teatro del Drago a renowned theatre company in Europe. The company has performed in numerous major festivals in Europe, Asia, and Africa.

Times: Wednesday, October 10 and Thursday October 11 at 7pm
