Marketing D Pinocchio

This Christmas, the must see show for both adults and children is the musical ‘Pinocchio’ at the Chicken Shed theatre in Cat Hill, Middlesex. Loved by children for generations, the story of the wooden puppet that becomes a boy has been turned into a wonderful musical. Running from the 9th December 2009 to the 16th January 2010 the two hour show is a Christmas treat for all ages.

At the Chicken Shed we have a reputation for putting on inclusive theatre - adults and children with all abilities take part in our shows. In fact, we encourage anyone who loves performing to take the stage. Reflecting this, there are four separate casts over the five week run involving 800 or so performers (200 per cast)

Our commitment to inclusivity is reflected in the wheel chair-friendly access to both stage and the 400-seater auditorium. The hearing impaired can follow the action and dialogue through the presence of signing performers.

There is a bar serving food and drink and these can be ordered before the show, during the interval and after the show.

Our front-of-house team are on hand to help if you need anything. We are always happy to help and like to make our public feel welcome and part of our theatre.
