Sag mal, Pinocchio, was erzählst du denn da? Du hast gesehen, wie Menschen zu Eseln wurden? Du hast im Bauch eines Haifischs gesessen? Und du hast die blaue Fee getroffen, die überhaupt und sowieso die Allerbeste ist? Du machst uns doch eine lange Nase! Weißt du denn nicht, dass Lügen kurze Beine haben? Äh... Pinocchio, warte mal! Das kann nicht wahr sein! Du hast dir doch alle diese Geschichten ausgedacht!

Gemeinsam mit dem Kinderchor am Rhein und Solist*innen des Ensembles stellen Marius Schötz und Marthe Meinhold die Geschichte von Pinocchio gehörig auf den Kopf und bringen Schwung in die fabelhaft hochstapelnden Abenteuer der sprechenden Holzpuppe, die eigentlich (k)ein guter Junge werden will. Und ob Schnitzer automatisch Fehler sind – oder nicht doch lauter Pinocchios, die mit Charme und Anarchie durchs Leben stiefeln, das ist eigentlich keine Frage.

Deutsch

Tell me, Pinocchio, what are you saying? Have you seen people become donkeys? Have you been in the belly of a shark? And you met the blue fairy, who is the very best anyway? You're giving us a hard time! Don't you know that lies have short legs? Uh... Pinocchio, wait a minute! This can not be true! You made up all these stories!

Together with the children's choir on the Rhine and soloists from the ensemble, Marius Schötz and Marthe Meinhold turn the story of Pinocchio on its head and bring momentum to the fabulously high-rise adventures of the talking wooden doll, who actually doesn't want to become a good boy. And whether blunders are automatically mistakes - or just Pinocchios who go through life with charm and anarchy, that's not really a question.
