Music Theatre International (MTI) is one of the world’s leading theatrical licensing agencies, granting theatres from around the world the rights to perform the greatest selection of musicals from Broadway and beyond. Founded in 1952 by composer Frank Loesser and orchestrator Don Walker, MTI is a driving force in advancing musical theatre as a vibrant and engaging art form.

A group of Fairies-in-Training gather to celebrate yet another “perfectly granted” wish of the Blue Fairy (“When You Wish upon a Star”). Their celebration is interrupted by the toy maker, Geppetto, who complains that Pinocchio, the puppet she brought to life as his son, is defective. To uncover the truth, the Blue Fairy takes us back in time to the day of Geppetto’s wish. Geppetto’s toy shop is filled with parents and their eager children (“Toys”). Having no children of his own, Geppetto envies them and wishes for his heart to be full (“Empty Heart”). The Blue Fairy grants his wish and brings Pinocchio to life.
