Win a Robot!
It’s the Great Robot Giveaway


Enter to win your very own robot from WowWee Robotics. The RS Tri-bot robot is an interactive talking humanoid robot whose running commentary and dynamic personality make him a comical sidekick. With bright LED eyes, animated eyebrows and a “pop-top” head, the RS Tri-bot robot is an expressive companion. Featuring various play modes and hours of entertaining content, the RS Tri-bot robot features joke telling, story sequences, and built-in games. Other models of WowWee robots will also be given away.

A different winner will be selected twice a month from October-April. Get details at the Great Lakes Science Center box office or view here.


Can't Get Enough Robots?

Then you'll love One Man Star Wars on stage at The Cleveland Play House May 6-10. Don't miss this nonstop blast through the first three Star Wars films. This one-man show features one high-energy actor who plays all of the characters (even the robots), recreates the effects, sings the music, flies the ships and fights both sides of the battles. Mention promo code "bots" and receive $5 off an adult ticket. Visit The Cleveland Play House for more information.
