Pinocchio

Dancers lifting and leaping in front of a projected cloudy sky with a large yellow sun
A dancer leaps with a raised axe in front of dancers in lumberjack costumes, against a projected misty pine forest and teal sky
Dancers in bright costumes in front of a projected neon-sign cityscape
The company in red shirts and blue trousers with arms raised in front of a projected pine forest, with a figure lying on a log
A line of dancers with arms raised beneath a projected sky and sun
A figure floating in deep blue projected water
A clown-like character in striped trousers and a pale wig reaching toward a group of dancers
A projected glowing fairground skyline in cloud, with two people standing in front of the screen
A projected blue misty pine forest with a distant castle-like wall
