In collaboration with Superior Arts Youth Theatre, LST brings you a musical that will make young audiences' imaginations soar. My Son Pinocchio is an enchanting morality tale for the young and young at heart. The book by David I. Stern tells the story of Pinocchio, the wooden puppet made famous by Disney's 1940 film, through the perspectives of his father, Geppetto, and the Blue Fairy. It features enjoyable music and lyrics by WICKED composer Stephen Schwartz, in addition to "When You Wish Upon a Star" and "I've Got No Strings".
