Pinocchio, The Panto
Hilariously Funny Show For All Ages This Christmas!
About this place
Staged by the Hong Kong Players, this is an English-language community theater production that reimagines the classic Italian fairy tale. In this cheeky adaptation, magical fairies grant Geppetto's wish for a family but accidentally bring a trouble-finding puppet to life. Packed with silly slapstick, cross-dressing dames, local jokes, and audience call-backs, this British-style pantomime has been a cherished holiday tradition since 1889.
