Pinotxo

A musical adaptation of Carlo Collodi's classic, performed at the Teatre Principal in Sabadell, with a lead role played by an actor with Down syndrome and a production centred on inclusion and empathy.

The production brings to the stage the story of the wooden puppet created by Geppetto, based on the tale by Carlo Collodi, and tells it through music. The proposal places inclusion and empathy at the heart of the story.

Germán Prenta plays Pinocchio, a role performed by an actor with Down syndrome. Direction and dramaturgy are by Jesús Sanz-Sebastián, who also appears in the cast as the Blue Fairy and Pinocchio's Mother. The composition and arrangements are by David Torres, the set design by Juan Ortega and the costumes by Sergio del Val.

The production is part of the Som Capaços Festival and is staged to mark the International Day of Persons with Disabilities. It is presented as a musical adventure aimed at a general audience, with a staging built around the classic story.
