A surprising puppet tale of courage, magic, and clever tricks!
More detailsThis charming tale is about a lonely inventor, Professor Doovalacky, who sets out to build a robot with the help of his assistant, a green caterpillar. But this will be no ordinary robot – Trinket will have feelings like a real human! But Trinket quickly learns that to be human is not only to feel wonder and joy, but also to feel anger, fear and sadness.
A modern adaptation of 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.
