“The Trons are Hamilton’s unique contribution to robot technology and have performed in many parts of the world, they were a perfect fit for this play” Mr Armitage said. “However the inventor and manager of The Trons, Greg Locke, has had to have major surgery on his shoulder and although the robot band plays on its own they still need some human input to get to a venue” he added. “Greg was very disappointed about this, as you can imagine, as stagings of this play are a rare event, the last one in New Zealand being in 1929. It would have been a rare opportunity to bring the two things together. But when other citoes in New Zealand learn how amazing this play is there may be other chances for this” Russell said confidently.
