A night of magic, music, and meaning

Johannesburg families are being invited to share in an evening of storytelling and community spirit as De La Salle Holy Cross College (DLSHCC) hosts a special private performance of Pinocchio: A Night at the Theatre at the iconic Joburg Theatre this November.

The one-night event on Friday, 7 November 2025, at 7 pm is more than just a pantomime. It’s a heartfelt college fundraiser that blends laughter, nostalgia, and local pride in one unforgettable evening.

A show with purpose

In true DLSHCC fashion, the night has been designed to bring people together while raising funds to support the school’s initiatives. Guests can expect a lively, family-friendly adaptation of Pinocchio filled with the kind of energy Joburg audiences love, sharp humour, catchy music, and the feel-good chaos that only a pantomime can deliver.

The performance will take place at the Joburg Theatre Complex in Braamfontein, a venue known for showcasing South Africa’s best stage productions. Tickets are available exclusively through Webtickets, with standard pricing currently in effect following the early-bird period that ended on 31 August

How to join the fun

Booking is easy: use the unique redemption code “DLSHCC” when purchasing tickets online to access the school’s reserved section. All proceeds from the evening go directly towards DLSHCC’s ongoing educational and community programmes, ensuring that every laugh, clap, and encore helps make a difference.

For many parents, students, and alumni, the event is also a chance to reconnect with the school’s vibrant spirit outside the classroom. It’s a reminder of how art, education, and community can come together to create something bigger than themselves.

A community tradition worth keeping

In recent years, DLSHCC has built a reputation for creative fundraising, from family fairs to festive concerts, but this year’s theatre night stands out for its charm and ambition. Supporting local theatre while celebrating student achievement gives the event a special kind of magic that resonates with both young audiences and nostalgic adults.

So if you’re looking for a wholesome night out in the city, something joyful, local, and meaningful, this might just be your ticket.

Pinocchio: A Night at the Theatre promises laughter, a few lessons about honesty, and plenty of heart. And with every seat filled, the DLSHCC community moves one step closer to turning its dreams into reality.
