​Georgie & Gadget

Director, Deviser, & Performer (Narrator)​​ | 2022
Little Angel Theatre ​| 
In partnership with​ The Guildhall School (London, England)​
     Georgie and Gadget is a touring children’s show that discusses the importance of being yourself and doing what you love. This heart-warming and uplifting story of a young inventor and her self-built robot friend is told through puppetry made from sustainable materials and originally composed music. Georgie & Gadget addresses themes of friendship, love, and gender stereotypes at a Key Stage level 1. It dually seeks to normalize the interests young girls have that deviate from societal expectations and promote women in STEM more generally.

A puppet of a young girl in overalls flies backwards in the air from an explosion. A puppet of a round, silver robot sits to the side in the middle of the young girl's bedroom. In the background, small invention blueprints are hung on fairy lights.
2 small puppets stand to the side of a young girl's bedroom made from a suitcase. A puppet of a round, silver robot stands looking sadly at the ground while a puppet of a young girl in overalls looks at the robot with worry.
A puppet of a young girl in overalls reachers her hand out towards a small, red felt hear that has appeared at the top of her bedroom made from a suitcase. A puppet of a round, silver robot sits in the middle of the bedroom.
Fox wears a navy overshirt and a white KN95 mask and stands in front of a white-purple stage light, excitedly outstretching her hands.
A puppet of a young girl in overalls and a puppet of a round, silver robot with a red felt heart on its chest sit and intently watch a small retro TV.
