Benji Mowbray

The Bohemians Theatre Company present a brand-new musical adaptation of Carlo Collodi’s ‘The Adventures of Pinocchio’ written by Benji Mowbray and Joel Nash.

 

And I know what you’re thinking... ‘Pinocchio?! I’ve heard that story a million times!’ 

Maybe so, but I bet you’ve never heard a version quite like ours? 

 

Set on a post-apocalyptic planet, we meet a radical robot girl named Pinocchio. She lives inside a cosy little bunker with her dad Joe. Everything is normal. Well, as normal as it can be when the world’s ended. But one day, Pinocchio discovers something that’ll change her life forever... Performed entirely by a cast of four Actor-Musicians, this is a folk-rock fairytale for our times! Expect kooky characters, catchy choruses, and enough lies to make your nose fall off! 

 

So come and join Pinocchio in her hazardous quest across a broken planet as The Bohemians bring their bombastic brilliance to The Imaginarium Roundhouse this Autumn. You won’t want to miss it!

​

The premier of 'The Misadventures of Pinocchio...' took place at the Imaginarium Roundhouse, Prescott for four performances on 15th - 17th October 2022.
