Trinket the Robot by Little Wing Puppets

A little robot who longs to become “real” – but is he ready for what it means to be alive?

Inventor Dr Doovalacky and his assistant, a caterpillar named Gizmo, set out to build a robot. But Trinket is no ordinary robot. Trinket has the ability to have feelings like a “real” human and the audience helps him to navigate the ups and downs of his new world.

Trinket the Robot is a lively, funny, interactive solo puppet show, based on the tale of Pinocchio. It explores emotions and offers ways for children to understand different feelings.
