Delaware Children's Theatre presents “Pinocchio”

The classic children’s story of Pinocchio comes to Wilmington, courtesy of the Delaware Children’s Theatre.

The play is designed to be kid-friendly, in keeping with DCT’s mission of providing theatre to children. It includes interactive elements like a costume parade and singalongs, as well as animated backdrops, thanks to the theatre’s high-tech AV system.

While many are likely familiar with the classic Disney version, the DCT’s performance tracks closely to the original 1883 novel by Carlo Collodi.

The Delaware Children’s Theatre’s Jessica Koubek said that their performance is geared to keep kids excited and engaged, using elements like audience singalongs, a costume parade, and a video backdrop with animation elements.

“It’s all very designed to keep the kids moving and the show does move nice and quick,” she said. “So for kids, it doesn’t really stop, so there isn’t really a point in this particular show for the kids to get bored, which is nice.”

Koubek says while the company’s mission is to create theatre for children, they use people of all ages to make the shows happen. “Pinocchio” has a cast and crew ranging in age from eight years old to retirees.

Koubek suggested the show is a good option for parents and caregivers looking for ways to entertain their kids during the winter.

“If parents are like, ‘man, the weather is kind of icky, what am I going to do?’ this would be a great thing,” she said. “Bring them in and it introduces them to theater in an easy way, because it’s not a long show. It keeps their attention.”

She adds even if parents aren’t sure about how their little ones will behave, the theatre is welcoming to kids of all ages.

“If it is a younger kid that the parents aren’t necessarily sure, bring them in,” she said. “See how they do.”

“Pinocchio” is on stage at the Delaware Children’s Theatre starting February 22 on Saturday and Sunday afternoons through March 2.

NORTHERN LIBERTIES (WPVI) — Lucky Duck is a new eatery along the Delaware River waterfront. The restaurant offers an approachable menu with an American Bistro style food with a creative collection of cocktails and brews.

The space is part of the Rivermark Apartments on Columbus Boulevard which took the place of Festival Pier. The Lucky Duck was part of the build out that includes a Sprouts Grocery store and the residential space.

The Lucky Duck has a tavern atmosphere with a wall of windows that overlook the river. The setting includes a nook for darts, a claw machine with rubber ducks and a pizza window for late night slices after the kitchen closes.

The indoor space includes nearly 70 seats and will be complemented by patio seating that will double to occupancy of the eatery.

MUNCIE, IN — Five individuals and one organization were recognized for their contributions to Delaware County during the annual ViVA (Very Important Volunteer Award) luncheon on April 14, according to a community announcement.

The event, hosted by the Muncie Noon Rotary Club in partnership with the Muncie Sunrise Rotary Club, has been a tradition since 1993. The ViVA Awards celebrate those who dedicate their time and resources to uplift the community.

Vickie Armstrong Oliver, Ken Glaub, Dottie Kreps and Beth Kroehler each received individual ViVA Awards for their volunteer efforts and commitment to various causes.

The Muncie Central High School Alumni Association was presented with the 2026 ViVA Organizational Award. Since 1995, the association has supported the high school through philanthropy and historical preservation.

The association has awarded more than $76,000 in scholarships to seniors and nearly $39,000 in teacher grants. It has also financed various campus needs, including the restoration of the school’s Abraham Lincoln statue. The board maintains a public Memorabilia Room to preserve the school’s legacy.

Linda Gregory received the Edmund F. Ball Lifetime Achievement Award for her lifelong dedication to service in the community.

The ViVA Awards luncheon served as a reminder of the generosity and compassion that define Delaware County’s volunteer heritage, according to the announcement.
