A Little Robot who longs to become “real”…

Get your tickets for Trinket the Robot

Trinket the Robot is an enthralling tale about a little robot who longs to become “real”–but is he ready for what it means to be alive? An inventor, Dr Doovalacky, sets out to build a robot with the help of his assistant, a green caterpillar named Gizmo. But this robot will be no ordinary robot. Trinket will be able to have feelings like a “real human,” and the audience needs to help him learn about the world. Trinket learns that to become human is not only to feel wonder and joy, but also to feel anger, fear and the sadness of having to say goodbye to someone when you don’t want to.

Based on the tale of Pinocchio, Trinket the Robot is a lively, funny, interactive solo show by Little Wing Puppets that explores emotions and offers ways for children to understand different feelings.

“The children were captivated by the show. They laughed and some cried. Trinket the Robot was entertaining and thoughtful in dealing with emotions.”
