PINOCCHIO, Puppet Lab, Drama Camps Set for March Break 2015 at Young People's Theatre

Young People's Theatre is gearing-up for a March Break chock-full of fun, with daily performances of the timeless, children's classic Pinocchio, a free Puppet Lab, and its ever-popular March Break Drama Camps.

The internationally acclaimed Québec theatre company Tout à Trac brings their breathtaking production of Pinocchio to YPT's Mainstage, weaving dance, puppetry, music and illusion together in a wildly inventive show. Pinocchio will be presented from March 3rd to 21st, with added performances during March Break from the 14th to the 21st.

From March 16th to 20th, every ticket to Pinocchio includes the opportunity for a parent/caregiver and their child to learn how to create their own puppet from the experts. Puppet Lab is free of charge!

At YPT's popular March Break Drama Camps, participants are up on their feet actively telling the stories they have devised together. Students conjure up their own world in a theatrical piece while making new friends and having lots of fun!
