Review Wrap Up | Robot Song

Here's what the critics have to say about the international sensation Robot Song, which plays it's final performances this week at Theatre Works:

"The production tackles these themes of identity without a hint of the preachiness that often plagues family theatre"

"Visually, it’s slick and inventive. Live animation, puppetry and animatronics blend seamlessly"

"Actress Adeline Hunter is a revelation in the role. She commands the stage with a rare "it" factor, capturing Juniper’s intelligence, fragility and confusion with a control that suggests a performer far beyond her years"

"Robot Song is technically bold and emotionally clear... Stylish. Smart. Deeply felt. A family musical that respects its audience - and lingers long after the robot powers down"

- It's On the House ★★★★★

"Chock full of awe and wonder, it is a show with family appeal that is creativity on steroids. It provides hope that even in the midst of a crisis, things can turn around"

"With colourful costuming and evocative sound and lighting, there is much to appreciate and savour in this award-winning show, with instant appeal"

- The Blurb

"An emotionally driven theatrical work that weaves live music, inventive design, and impressive robotics to explore childhood isolation"

"At the heart of the production is a striking performance from Adeline Hunter... her portrayal feels grounded and truthful, allowing the emotional stakes to land with quiet force, including an expressive vocal performance that transforms each moment into something personal and affecting"
