Follow Pinocchio on his adventures as he strives to become a “Real Live Boy”! Tacoma City Ballet will premiere Pinocchio The Ballet at the Pantages Theater Saturday and Sunday, March 25th & 26th at 2:00 pm. Fashioned from the original Italian fairytale, The Adventures of Pinocchio written by Carlo Collodi in 1883, Pinocchio The Ballet is a delightful theatrical experience perfect for the whole family.
Pinocchio The Ballet features fabulous music written by Russian composer Dmitri Shostakovich, gorgeous scenery and costumes, and fantastic choreography danced by the Tacoma City Ballet Company. It is an extraordinary production which has musical scores that require the musicians in the Tacoma City Ballet Orchestra to be versatile in both classical and jazz, as both genres are used throughout the score. The ballet needs both a classical orchestra and a jazz orchestra.
