Dear Pinocchio
Imagine it is one year after the story you saw. Pinocchio hasn’t had any contact with the characters he met in the play (except Geppeto, of course!). Write a letter to Pinocchio as one of the other characters in the play. You might pretend to be the Blue Fairy, the Puppet Master, Lampwick, or even the Whale. Why does that character want to be in touch with Pinocchio? To check up on him? To get something from him? To say they were sorry? Imagine how Pinocchio would feel to read his letter. Would he want to write back?
