Write Out West Festival: Trinket the Robot

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.

“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.

The session is best suited for children aged 3-8 years and their parents/guardians, and is hosted at Allan Mullins Studio. Tickets are $10 per person. Bookings are essential.
