![]() Pinocchio resolves to work and study as hard as he can.Īfter enough time, Pinocchio discovers he has become a real boy capable of feeling emotion. The two briefly reunite before Flash finally passes on. Pinocchio finally gets a job moving grain around, a job that nearly killed his employer's donkey. Darlene appears to help take care of Gepetto while Cricket speaks to Pinocchio about the Fairy's disappearance and the need to care of Gepetto. The two work together to escape the beast and return to shore. Deep in the belly of the Sharkfish, Gepetto and his son are reunited. Thrown to sea, the Fairy finally fees Pinocchio of his donkey appearance but the boy is subsequently eaten by the Sharkfish that swallowed his father's boat. The Ringmaster decides to have the donkey drowned at sea. Pinocchio accidentally breaks one of his legs and is considered useless. Pinocchio is trapped as a circus donkey he is remorseful as the Fairy appears before him, unwilling to help. (They have made asses of themselves quite literally.) The Coachman sells off these donkeys at an auction, but Pinocchio joins the cast of the Mishandling Brothers' Circus of Handled Animals and Oddities. In Boobyland, Pinocchio and several boys indulge endlessly in alcohol, ice cream, and adult magazines before magically transforming into donkeys. The Coachman appears and brings the two to Boobyland news of this reaches the Fairy, who does not save Pinocchio this time. Flash convinces Pinocchio to join him on a trip to Boobyland, a place where anything is possible and there are no responsibilities. Pinocchio wanders off to find his own way and meets Flash again. Moments later, Pinocchio, the Fairy, and several townsfolk watch the massive Sharkfish swallow Gepetto's boat whole. Gepetto is seen offshore, searching every stretch of land and sea for his boy. The Fairy warns Pinocchio that Gepetto has gone missing the creator-father has been searching for his child since Pinocchio first wandered off to the Fire Eater's House. Pinocchio is presented with a task: to catch dinner for the giant! The boy hunts down the Great Serpent for the fisherman before the Fairy appears. The two linger for too long and Pinocchio is caught by the massive man. The Fairy sends Pinocchio to school, just as Gepetto had done before, but he is stopped by Flash who again convinces him to miss school for something more exciting – this time, a chance to see the 10-foot tall giant Great Green Fisherman. Upon learning the truth of Pinocchio's background and his interaction with the Fox and Cat, Pinocchio's nose returns to normal and the Fairy grants him a new schoolbook. The puppet's iconic nose grows longer and longer as he continuously lies to the Fairy about how he arrived at the cottage. Pinocchio is restored to proper health and is questioned by the Fairy. The boy is inspected by a crow and the now-restored Cricket. The scene shifts to the cottage of the Fairy, where Pinocchio has been brought to safety. Fooled by the tale, Pinocchio wanders to the forest only to be mugged by the Fox and Cat. Finally, Darlene appears to tell Pinocchio that the two animals have gone ahead. Pinocchio expects to see the Fox and Cat, but instead meets several townsfolk. The coins can only be planted at night, so Pinocchio stays at an inn until nightfall. If Pinocchio plants his gold coins in the field, he within in an hour will be granted thousands of coins in return. He is ambushed on the street by a Fox and a Cat who proceed to explain a legend about a cave in the woods which leads to the Field of Miracles. Pinocchio causes trouble at the Fire Eater's establishment, but ultimately leaves with more coins than he began with. ![]() The boy sells his schoolbook to a woman on the street, Darlene, to have enough coins to visit the Fire Eater. Pinocchio speaks with Flash about the Fire Eater's local House of Puppets and Waffles and decides to skip school to visit this attraction. Gepetto is released from prison and promptly sends Pinocchio to school with his first book. Cricket has a lot of advice but Pinocchio crushes him with a hammer. Following this, Pinocchio meets a mischievous human boy, Flash, before returning home and meeting Cricket. Pinocchio causes a lot of commotion in the streets of Tuscany, resulting in his creator-father Gepetto being sent to debtor's prison. Gepetto creates the wooden puppet Pinocchio, who is filled with mischief as he begins to find his way in his new world. ![]() The story of Smith's play is similar to the source material but with modern updates and other whimsical tweaks that make this piece stand on its own.
