About This Event

American comedy troupe Big Tobacco returns to Edinburgh with *Big Tobacco’s Pinocchio*, an absurd and irreverent retelling of the classic tale. The show transplants the wooden puppet, Jiminy Cricket, Geppetto and the Blue Fairy into old-timey Italy for a fast-paced, joke-heavy evening. As the title suggests, the group’s style leans into the darker, more anarchic side of the story, with a steady stream of gags and a loose, unpolished energy. The performance takes place at theSpace at Niddry St on Friday 7 August at 7.15pm. Tickets are available via the venue’s website.
