About

Bring a picnic and a bottle of bubbles and enjoy a classic children's tale performed amidst the scenic ruins of Abergavenny Castle!

Pinocchio – Abergavenny Castle
Presented by Illyria Theatre
Sunday 2nd August 18:00 (Gates open at 17:00)
Childless toymaker Geppetto makes a wooden puppet – little realising the chaos he is about to unleash. The puppet yearns for adventure and runs away, but instead of excitement only finds glorious attractions containing hidden dangers. He returns home hoping to be showered with sympathy and learns his tribulations are just beginning. Running away hasn't worked; lying won't work; he must become a real boy to achieve the belonging he craves.

Collodi's classic has been translated into no fewer than 260 languages since it was first published in 1883.

Illyria celebrates this magical coming-of-age tale in a thrilling musical outdoor show.
