Performance of the puppet theater adventures of Pinocchio. The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Pinocchio
The main characters: Pinocchio, Malvina, Pierrot, Harlequin - puppets who escaped from the theater of the evil Karabas-Barabas and are trying to find the cherished door to a new just world. They will find this door in Papa Carlo's closet and will be able to open it with the help of a golden key in order to stay forever in a happy future. But before they reach their goal, they have to endure many trials and adventures.
Favorite fairy tale of many generations of children. And it would be a sin not to stage a puppet show about puppets! The theater offers us a classic production of this performance with bright, easily recognizable puppets and characters. The action is built on the principle of "people and dolls": some of the characters on the stage (Carlo, Carabas, Duremar, Alice, Basilio) are played by people with or without masks; the other part (Pinocchio, Malvina, Pierrot, Harlequin) - dolls. The performance is intended for an audience of five years and older.
Stage director - Oleg Rusov. The puppets for the performance were made by the well-known production designer of the puppet theater, a member of the Union of Artists of the Russian Federation, Andrei Mikhailovich Lukomsky. His father also worked in the puppet theater. The question of choosing a profession never stood before A. Lukomsky. He always knew who he would be and seems to know everything about dolls. Cheerful and mischievous, like Pinocchio himself, the music for the production was written by Kharkov composer Igor Anatolyevich Gaidenko. He is the author of music for more than 40 performances in different cities of Russia and Ukraine.
We advise you to watch this kind and positive play about a resilient wooden boy with your children. Just remember that tickets are required for all spectators, both small and large. Children under 14 years of age are only allowed in the hall if accompanied by an adult. For the convenience of young spectators, so that everything that happens on the stage can be clearly seen, transformer chairs are installed in the hall, in which the seat rises to the desired height. The theater is waiting for you!

The tale is a lie, but there is a hint in it
Once Papa Carlo, in a closet under the stairs, cut a boy-doll out of an unusual log, and from that moment miracles began in the town. The boy came to life and, like many children, was not particularly obedient. Offended the Talking Cricket, angered the old rat Shushara, deceived dad, preferred the farce and the wealth promised by charlatans to school. What fate awaits a boy who is not familiar with the insidiousness of our world and lives in momentary emotions? Spectators who buy tickets for the play "The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Pinocchio" in Moscow will find out about this.
Many people know the ending of this instructive, but cheerful and kind fairy tale. Pinocchio will have many adventures and unexpected acquaintances, difficult and even dangerous trials. He learns incredible facts about the world of people, and with him a lot of new things will be discovered for themselves by small theatergoers.
The secret of the door behind the canvas
The puppet show about the adventures of the wooden boy is based on the text of the original and therefore is especially attractive to viewers who are familiar with its plot. All your favorite characters will appear on the stage in the course of the action - the charming turtle Tortila, the blue-haired Malvina and her sad admirer Pierrot, the terrible red-bearded Karabas-Barabas and the charismatic crooks Alice and Basilio.
The puppets in this performance harmoniously coexist on the stage with masked actors, which adds dynamics to the action and perfectly complements the plot about the life of puppets in the world of people and magical creatures. Despite all the ups and downs and very instructive events, the heroes are waiting for a happy ending - the key will still open the door behind the canvas, which hides a real, genuine miracle.

The organ grinder Carlo made a wooden man out of a talking log to walk around the yards with him and earn his living. But the kid turned out to be an unusually mischievous, impudent, constantly getting into trouble boy.
Instead of obeying his father and going to school, Pinocchio, as Carlo called him, ran away to the performance of the Karabas Barabas Theater - the great producer and director of all time, and thwarted his brilliant production.
A well-deserved punishment is suddenly replaced by a pardon and a cash reward of 5 gold coins. And all because Karabas finds out about the secret door hidden in Carlo's closet. He needs to open it. Therefore, when Pinocchio goes home, he, Karabas Barabas, will follow the tomboy and find out where his father lives ...
Although Pinocchio is a liar and a fool, it is easy to deceive him. He did not even go halfway to the house, when he met scammers - the fox Alice and the cat Basilio, and promised that his finances would increase by 22 and a half times. You just need to get into the Land of Fools, bury money in the Field of Miracles, and in the morning it will be possible to count the profits.
Since its inception, the story of the restless wooden doll has changed little. Pinocchio is the same naughty, liar and loafer, Tortila is the same forgetful and fair, the fox Alice and the cat Basilio are the same scoundrels as they were before.
So why should we once again retell a story that is familiar to everyone and has become so familiar (that’s why it’s good) ?! Let's talk about the most unusual performance that could ever happen! Not in a fairy tale, but for real!
It all started with the fact that the composer Alexei Rybnikov conceived a musical performance that would be interesting for both adults and children. So that both of them would come - and no one would be bored, and would not want to leave, and after the end of the performance, there would be a desire to return here again.
Childhood unites us with common memories. Theater unites the audience with experience. In musical theater, the experience is music. It is the key to the success of the play "Pinocchio!".
Also, as a guarantee of enthusiastic animation in the audience - in a funny and sensible libretto. And the performers - artists of our Theater, musicians, singers, who are directly involved throughout the show and never leave the stage for a minute, highlight new facets not only of the fairy tale about Pinocchio, but also of the musical entertainment genre itself.
Inspired by what is happening, the audience, as a rule, does not even suspect that they are returning to the origins of the theater - to clownish booths, fastnachtspiel, theater dell'arte. And this is not a simple revival of old traditions, but their enrichment with centuries-old experience, enhanced by modern means. Coming to the play "Pinocchio", we find ourselves in a theater in which all the characters, on stage and in the hall, are living people - participants in the same game, and it seems that its outcome depends on you and me.
