Getting to Know Characters in Pinocchio

July 24, 2018 by dramalearningcenter Leave a Comment

 

We’re so excited that Beginning Acting students this Fall will have the chance to perform in their own productions Disney’s My Son Pinocchio, Jr..! Get to know a little more about some of the characters in the show ahead of the start of these exciting classes for students in grades K-2.

​

​Gepetto is a lonely toymaker who longs to be a father.

​

​Pinocchio is a wooden puppet who doesn’t know where he belongs.

​

​The Blue Fairy is convinced of her own perfection and does not like having it called into question.

​

​The Fairies Rosa, Viola, & Arancia are fairies in training. They are sweet and kind.

​

​Stromboli is a bumbling, loud, incompetent puppeteer who has at least a few screws loose.

​

​Professore Buongrazzo is a passionate, mad scientist obsessed with building perfect children.

​

​The Ringleader runs Pleasure Island.

​

​Signora Giovanni is Pinocchio’s teacher.

​

​Bernardo & Maria are a married couple living in Idyllia looking to purchase a perfect daughter from Professore Buonragazzo.

​

​Talia is created for Maria and Bernardo by Professore Buonragazzo to be their perfect child.

 

That’s not even all. Cast members will also serve as Town parents and children, animals, roustabouts, and delinquents. There are over 30 roles in this fun musical play written with young performers in mind. There is a great place for literally everyone to shine.

Beginning Acting Classes meet on Friday nights and Saturday mornings for students grades K-2. These 6-week sessions culminate in two final performances with full production elements including professional lighting, set, and costume design. Register your early Elementary student for this exciting production-based storytelling adventure today!

“I can’t say enough how blown away I was by the incredible talent. It’s been a great experience for my daughter. Thank you! She will miss the cast for sure!”– Margaret O.
“Even though my daughter was one of the youngest she said she always felt included by the older kids who looked out for them. This was a hugely ambitious project and it ended up being amazing! Thank you for taking this on and making such a caring environment for all the kids! This is why I love theatre, and now my daughter does too!”– Alexia C.
“This was an awesome experience!! The older kids were great with my daughter who was one of the youngest in the cast. I truly appreciate the supportive and enriching environment that DLC created for this show.”– Beth H.
“Not only was the show impressive, the experience was wonderful. My daughter and friends sobbed after the last performance. They’ve never been as close as a cast and they are already committed to return next summer.”– Andrea D.
