We are introduced to the story by Jiminy Cricket. He takes us into the shop of Geppetto, carpenter and puppet-maker. Jiminy hopes to have the chance merely to settle down on the hearth but, as he is doing so, Geppetto and his kitten, Figaro, appear. Jiminy watches as Geppetto puts the final touches to his best puppet to date. The question arises as to the puppet’s name: Geppetto suggests Pinocchio but neither Figaro nor the goldfish Cleo like that.
Off singing voice: When you wish upon a star
makes no difference who you are anything your heart desires will come to you
If your heart is in your dream no request is too extreme when you wish upon a star as dreamers do
Fate is kind she brings to those who love the sweet fulfillment of their secret longing
Jiminy: Pretty, huh? I’ll bet a lot of you folks don’t believe that, about a wish coming true, do you? Well, I didn’t. Of course I’m just a cricket singing my way from hearth to hearth but… let me tell you what made me change my mind he opens a book entitled “Pinocchio” One night, a long time… ahem. Pardon me. Wait’ll I fix this thing. There. One night a long time ago… my travels took me to a quaint little village. It was a beautiful night. The stars were shining like diamonds high above the roofs of that sleepy old town. Pretty as a picture. As I wandered along the crooked streets there wasn’t a soul to be seen. The only sign of life was a lighted window in the shop of a wood-carver named… Geppetto. So I hopped over and looked in. It was a shame to see a nice cheerful fire like that going to waste. So what do I do? I go in! I looked around. Of course, being in a strange place like that I didn’t know what to expect. A cricket can’t be too careful, you know. Soon as I saw there was no one about I made myself at home. As I stood there warming my… myself I took a look around. Well sir, you never saw such a place. The most fantastic clocks you ever laid your eyes on and all carved out of wood. And cute little music boxes, each one a work of art. And shelf after shelf of toys and… and then something else caught my eye. A puppet! You know, one of those marionette things, all strings and joints chuckle Cute little fellow. Ding, ding. Going up? Good piece of wood too.
GEPPETTO: Well now, it won’t take much longer.
Figaro: Meow
Geppetto: Just a little more paint and he’s all finished. I think he’ll be al right, don’t you, Figaro?
Figaro: Purr.
Geppetto: humming Tra, la, la
Jiminy: Ahh! Beg pardon.
Geppetto: See chuckle That makes a big difference.
Jiminy: Ver-r-ry good! Very, very good. Well, you can’t please everybody.
Geppetto: Now I have just the name for you: Pinocchio! Do you like it, Figaro? No? You do, don’t you Cleo? Well, we’ll leave it to little woodenhead. You like it? That settles it! Pinocchio it is! Come on, now, we’ll try you out. Music Professor! He works the puppet’s strings so that it nods “yes”. Geppetto pushes the button of a music box. Then, by working his strings Geppetto makes Pinocchio dance
Jiminy Cricket Hey! Ouch, ouch! Take it easy there! Oh, break it up, will you? Whew! Lotta down beats in there.
Geppetto: humming Little woodenheadgo play your partbring a little joyto every heart
little do you know and yet it's true that I'm mighty proud of you Little wooden feet and best of all little wooden seat in case your fall Oh no! how graceful! my little woodenhead Cleo, meet Pinocchio. Say, "How do you do?". Say hello to Figaro. Oops! oh oh no! up to mischief already. You see what happens? Boo!. Up we go! Ah, you’re a cute little fellow.
Figaro: Meow, purr, purr.
Geppetto: And that smile! You know I---
Figaro: Meow.
Geppetto: You rascal! Jealous, huh? You know Pinocchio I think Figaro is jealous of you. Oh, don’t worry Figaro. I sti--- clocks chiming Uh-oh. I wander what time is it. It’s getting late. Come now. We go to bed. Good night, Pinocchio. Little funny face. Good night, Cleo, my little water baby. Figari? You say good night too. Go on! Now go to sleep, my little mermaid. Good night.
Jiminy: Oh hum yawning This is my idea of comfort. Solid comfort.
Geppetto: chuckling Look at him, Figaro. He almost looks alive. Wouldn’t it be nice if he was a real boy? Oh, well. Come on. We go to sleep. Ah Figaro, I forgot to open the window. Oh Figaro! Look, look the wishing star! Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight I wish I may. I wish I might, have the wish I make tonight. Figaro, you know what I wished? I wished that my little Pinocchio might be a real boy! Wouldn’t that be nice? Just think, a real boy.
Jiminy: A very lovely thought, but not at all practical.
Geppetto: … a real… boy snoring
Jiminy Cricket can’t sleep because of the clocks’ noise and Geppetto’s roar. That night when everyone was sound sleep the Blue Fairy comes down from her star.
Jiminy: Quiet! After all, enough’s enough. Now what’s up? he sees a strange light, a brilliant glow which grows more dazzling every minute. It is the Wishing Star Hey, what’s going on here? in the center of the glow appears a very beautiful woman dressed in robes of flowing blue As I live and breathe, a fairy! Mmm-mmm.
Blue Fairy: Good Geppetto, you have given so much happiness to others. You deserve to have your wish come true. Little puppet made of pine wake the wand touches Pinocchio The gift of life is tine Pinocchio comes to life.
Jiminy: Whew! What they can’t do these days.
Pinocchio: blinking his eyes and raising his wooden arm I can move! I can talk! I can walk!
Blue Fairy: Yes Pinocchio, I’ve given you life.
Pinocchio: Why?
Blue Fairy: Because tonight Geppetto wished for a real boy.
Pinocchio: Am I a real boy? he asks in amazement
Blue Fairy: No, Pinocchio. To make Geppetto’s wish come true will be enterely up to you.
Pinocchio: Up to me?
Blue Fairy: Prove yourself brave, truthful and unselfish, and someday you will be a real boy.
Pinocchio: A real boy!
Jiminy: That won’t be easy.
Blue Fairy: You must learn to chose between right and wrong.
Pinocchio: Right… and wrong? looking his hands But how will I know?
Jiminy: How’ll he know!
Blue Fairy: Your conscience will tell you.
Pinocchio: What are a conscience?
Jiminy: What are a conscience! I’ll tell ya! A conscience is that still small voice people won’t listen to. That’s just the trouble with the world today.
Pinocchio: Are you my conscience?
Jiminy: Who, me?
Blue Fairy: Hmmm. Would you like to be Pinocchio’s conscience?
Jiminy: embarrassed Well… uh, I, I--- Uh-huh.
Blue Fairy: Very well! What is your name?
Jiminy: Oh, Cricket’s the name. Jiminy Cricket.
Blue Fairy: Kneel, Mr. Cricket.
Jiminy: Huh? No tricks now.
Blue Fairy: I dub you Pinocchio’s conscience. Lord High Keeper of the Knowledge of Right and Wrong, Counselor in moments of temptation and guide along the straight and narrow path. Arise, Sir Jiminy Cricket.
Jiminy: Well! Ho-ho-ho! My,my! when he rises his shabby old clothes are gone and he’s clad in elegant raiment from head to foot Mmm! Say, that’s pretty swell. Gee… thanks! But… don’t I get a badge or something?
Blue Fairy: We’ll see
Jiminy: You mean maybe I will?
Blue Fairy: I shouldn’t wander.
Jiminy: Make it a gold one?
Blue Fairy: Maybe. Now remember, Pinocchio, be a good boy. And always let your conscience be your guide the Blue Fairy backs slowly away
Jiminy: Goodbye Milady.
Pinocchio: Goodbye.
Jiminy: humming Not bad, says I Oh yeah! Ho-ho-ho! Almost forgot about you. Well, Pinoke, maybe you and I… had better have a little heart-to-heart talk.
Pinocchio: Why?
Jiminy: Well, you want to be a real boy, don’t you?
Pinocchio: Aha!
Jiminy: All right. Sit down, son. Now you see the world is full of temptations.
Pinocchio: Temptations.
Jiminy: Yep! Temptations. They’re the wrong things that seem right at the time but… even though the right things may seem wrong sometimes, sometimes the wrong things chuckles may be right at the wrong time or… visa versa. Ahem. Understand?
Pinocchio: Uh-uh. But I’m gonna do right!
Jiminy: Atta boy, Pinoke, and I’m gonna help ya! And anytime you need me, you know, just whistle like this whistle
Pinocchio: Like this? he tries but no sound comes
Jiminy: No, no, try it again, Pinoke.
Pinocchio: Like this?
Jiminy: No son. Now listen whistling Pinocchio tries again and finally he successes That’s it! Come on, let’s sing it!When you get in trouble andyou don't know right from wrong
give a little whistle! give a little whistle! when you meet temptation and the urge is very strong give a little whistle! give a little whistle!
not just a little squeak, pucker up and blow and if your whistle's weak, yell
Pinocchio: Jiminy Cricket!
Jiminy: Right!

Take the straight and narrow path and if you start to slide give a little whistle! give a little whistle!
Pinocchio: and always let your conscience be your guide
JIMINY: Look out, Pinoke! Pinocchio loos his balance and falls clatteringly to the floor. The noise wakes Geppetto and Figaro
Geppetto: Who is there?
Pinocchio: It’s me.
Geppetto: Ahh! It’s me. Huh? Shhh, Figaro! There’s somebody in here.
Figaro: Meow
Geppetto: Shh! Careful now, Figaro. He might spring out on us at anytime. He’s in here, somewhere.
Pinocchio: Here I am.
Geppetto: He notices his puppet Ohh! Pinocchio! How did you get down here?
Pinocchio: I fell down.
Geppetto: Oh you did. Ohh! You are talking!

Geppetto: No, no you can’t. I’m dreaming in my sleep! Oh, wake me up! Wake me up! Now we see who’s dreaming. Go on… say something.
Pinocchio: Gee. Yo’re funny. Do it again!
Geppetto: You do talk!
Pinocchio: Yes! The Blue Fairy came.
Geppetto: The Blue Fairy?
Pinocchio: Uh-huh, and I got a conscience.
Geppetto: A conscience?

Geppetto: A real boy! It’s my wish, it’s come true! Figaro look! He’s alive, he can talk! Say hello to Figaro.
Pinocchio: Hello to Figaro.

Jiminy: Here it is! I got it! Here’s water. Here’s some water.
Geppetto: Help! Where’s water? He plungs the burning finger into Cleo’s bowl That was close. Maybe we better go to bed before something else happens.
Jiminy: Little man, you’ve had a busy night yawns
Geppetto: Now, close your eyes and go to sleep.
Pinocchio: Why?
Geppetto: Oh, everybody has to sleep. Figaro goes to sleep and Cleo and besides tomorrow you’ve got to school.

Sromboli’s marionette show
Stromboli: Ladies and gentlemen, to conclude the performance of this great show Stromboli, the master showman, that’s a-me. And by special permission of the management, that’s a-me too, is presenting to you something you will absolutely refuse to believe!
Jiminy: Well, looks like a sellout
Stromboli: Introducing the only marionette-a can a-sing and a-dance absolutely without the aids of a-strings to himself I hope-a so. The one… and only…Pinocchio! Applause
Jiminy: Hmmph! What a buildup.
The scenary is open an a focus lights Pinocchio at the top of a stair.
Pinocchio: I've got no strings
to hold me down he falls by the steps and everybody laughs
Jiminy: angrily Go ahead… make a fool of yourself! Then maybe you’ll listen to your conscience.
Stromboli: angry and murmuring in Italian Cute kid. Heh-heh-heh.
Pinocchio: I’ve got no strings
To hold me down to make me free, or make me frown I had strings but now I'm free there no are strings on me
Hi ho the me-rri-o that's the only way to be I want the world to know nothing ever worries me

Jiminy: Huh? They like him. He’s a success. Gosh! Maybe I was wrong. Well, guess he won’t need me any more. What does an actor want with a conscience anyway.
Night. Geppetto’s home. He has cooked a delicious supper in Pinocchio’s honor.
Geppetto: What could have happened to him? Where could he be at this hour? I’d better go out again and look for him. And remember, nobody eats a bite… until I find him he goes out and Figaro sees his opportunity to eat his meal, but Cleo gurgles remembering their promise

The carriage begins moving
STOMBOLI: Giddyap! Get along there.
Pinocchio: Jiminy! Oh Jiminy! whistle Jiminy, where are you? whistle Jiminy Cricket! sobbing
Not too far away Jiminy Cricket’s still thinking in Pinocchio.
Jiminy: Well, there he goes. Sitting in the lap of luxury, the world at his feet. Oh well, I can always say “I knew him when”. I’ll just go out of his life quietly. I would like to wish him luck though. Sure! Why not? he runs after the carriage Pinocchio! Pinocchio! It’s me! Your old friend, Jiminy Cricket!
Pinocchio: Jiminy! Gee, I’m glad to see ya!
Jiminy: Pinocchio, what’s happened? What did he do to ya?
Pinocchio: Oh, he was mad. He said he was gonna push my face in everybody’s eye.
Jiminy: Yeah?
Pinocchio: And just ‘cause I’m a goldbrick he’s gonna chop me into firewood!
Jiminy: Oh, is that so? Now don’t you worry, son. I’ll have you outta here in no time at all. Why this is just as easy as rolling off a… umph! clanking Kinda rusty. Needs a little oil.
Echo Needs a little oil… Needs a little oil…
Jiminy: That’s what I said. Woo-hoo-hoo! Must be one of the old models.
Pinocchio: You mean you can’t open it?
Jiminy: Yeah. Looks pretty hopeless. It’ll take a miracle to get us outta here.
Pinocchio: Gee.
Meanwhile Geppetto continues looking for Pinocchio in the rain.
Geppetto: Pinocchio? Pinocchio!
STROMBOLI: Giddy up! mumbling
Geppetto: Pinocch---he has been so close to Pinocchio but he doesn’t know; thunder and lightning sound before he shouts "Pinocchio!"
Inside the carriage.
Jiminy: A fine conscience I turned out to be.
Pinocchio: crying I should-a listened to you, Jiminy.
Jiminy: No, it was my fault. I shouldn’t have walked out on you.
Pinocchio: Guess I’ll never see my father again.
Jiminy: Oh, buck up, son. It could be worse. Be cheerful… like me! Aw, take it easy son. Come on, blow. Atta boy. Oh well, it stopped raining anyway. Hey, that star again! The lady! The Fairy! the star shines through the clouds
Pinocchio: What’ll she say? What’ll I tell her?

Blue Fairy: Pinocchio, why didn’t you go to school?
Pinocchio: School? Well I… hesitates

Pinocchio: I was going to school ‘til I met somebody.
Blue Fairy: Met somebody?
Pinocchio: Yeah. Two big monsters! With big green eyes his nose begins to grow Why I…

Pinocchio: No ma’am, but they tied me in a big sack.
Blue Fairy: You don’t say! Pinocchio nods And where was Sir Jiminy?
Pinocchio: Uh? Jiminy?
Jiminy: Psst. Leave outta this.
Pinocchio: the more he embroideres his adventures, the more his nose grows They put him in a little sack.
Blue Fairy: No!
Pinocchio: Yeah!
Blue Fairy: How did you escape?
Pinocchio: I didn’t. They chopped me into firewood! Oh, oh! Look! My nose! What’s happened?
Blue Fairy: Perhaps you haven’t been telling the truth, Pinocchio.
Jiminy: Perhaps?
Pinocchio: Oh, but I have! Every single word! Oh please help me! I’m awful sorry.
Blue Fairy: You see, Pinocchio, a lie keeps growing and growing until it’s as plain as the nose on your face.
Jiminy: She’s right Pinoke, you better come clean.
Pinocchio: I’ll never lie again, honest. I won’t.
Jiminy: Please Your Honour, uh, I mean… Miss Fairy. Give him another chance for my sake. Will ya? Huh?
Blue Fairy: I’ll forgive you this once, but remember, a boy who won’t be good might just as web be made of wood.
Pinocchio & Jiminy Cricket: We’ll be good, won’t we?
Blue Fairy: Very well, but this is the last time I can help you she touches the cage with her wand and Pinocchio is free

In the race, Pinocchio meets again Honest John and Gideon, but now with a new offert…
Honest John: Well, well Pinocchio. What’s your rush?
Pinocchio: I gotta beat Jiminy home. Oh hello.
Honest John: Well, how is the great actor?
Pinocchio: I don’t want to be an actor. Stromboli was terrible!
Honest John: He was?
Pinocchio: Yes, he locked me in a bird cage.
Honest John: He did?
Pinocchio: Uh-huh, but I learned my lesson, I’m going---
Honest John: Oh you poor, poor boy. You must be a nervous wreck. That’s it! You are a nervous wreck. Ahem. We must diagnose this case at once. To Gideon Quick, Doctor, your notebook. Bless my soul. Mmm! Mmm-Hmmm! My, my, just as I thought. A slight touch of monetary complications with bucolic semi-lunar contraptions of the flying trapezes. Mm-hmm! Say hippopotamus.
Pinocchio: Hi-ho-hotamus.
