Look at that! What do you know? It's gears and wheels that make me go!

From a pile of shiny scrap metal comes the buzz, clink and whir of the original toy story! This industrial musical is the tale of Gepetto's brand-new mechanical boy who learns, through much trial and many errors, what it means to be human. NWCT World Premiere!
