The story of a robot, his mother, and their life changing journey to a retirement home in outer space!

After 200 years of keeping his inventor’s comatose widow alive, FRED the robot decides they both could use a change. Taking a leap of faith, he packs up their home in Phoenix and the odd couple relocate to The Clam - a once luxurious retirement space station orbiting Pluto. There, The Clam’s in-house alien band The Kunzig’s awaken something special in FRED’s ancient companion.

FRED was commissioned and presented by Dixon Place in 2017.
