Syracuse Stage Presents: My Robot

When Ophelia’s family decides to move to the seaside, she’s not impressed. She doesn’t like the beach, or the people, or the farawayness of the life she once knew. But she does like inventing. So when a mysterious box full of gadgets arrives in her bedroom one night along with a strange note that reads ‘You Make Me’… she invents a solution.

Together Ophelia and her robot friend Olivetti will thwart bullies, build bridges, and enact daring rescues on angry oceans. Along the way, they learn that if one piece goes missing it can take a great effort to find that lost something and fill up the gap. But sometimes the answer’s not to look where you left it – but to make something new, and be happy with that.

A story that supports socio-emotional learning, understanding poetic language, creative thinking, and STEM based problem solving.
