PINOCCHIO
The show invites an audience of 3 into the back of a car, and drives them through the city as sun sets. Real car radio gives way to fictional news which gives way to a surreal and epic soundtrack, until the real world entirely disappears…
‘I can’t talk, I’m driving. Stay exactly where you are - and try to act natural.’
‘The real star of Pinocchio is Dublin itself, made strangely new and wondrous as its skewed landscapes filter through the smudged windows.’ (Dublin Times - Nominated for Spirit of the Fringe Award)
