Frigid temperatures and blowing snow didn’t stop Palos South students from performing Disney’s “My Son Pinocchio: Geppetto’s Musical Tale” to sold out crowds Friday and Saturday night at Stagg High School.
The twist on the classic “Pinocchio” is told from Geppetto, the aging toymaker’s point of view where he transforms from a demanding creator to a real, live father. Palos South drama teacher Katie McDonough, directed the student cast and crew of over 70 in her sixteenth musical production. "They are a dynamic group who are very bonded together," said McDonough. "They really embody the message of this play."
