Disney’s MY SON PINOCCHIO JR. is based on the 2000 made-for-television movie Geppetto with original music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and a few tunes from the 1940 Disney classic Pinocchio. In this twist on the traditional Pinocchio story, things don’t work out exactly as expected. The Blue Fairy is convinced that she granted Geppetto’s wish perfectly, but the toy maker is less than thrilled with his new son Pinocchio. Geppetto tries to convince the Blue Fairy of Pinocchio’s defects, and he begs her to take him back. The Blue Fairy refuses but later agrees to give Pinocchio to a greedy puppeteer, Stromboli, who wants the stringless puppet for his show. When Pinocchio saves them both from the mouth of a whale, Geppetto realizes he has grown to love his new son. Upon returning home, he is forced to convince Stromboli and the Blue Fairy that he deserves to keep Pinocchio.
