Trumpet Girl is the female trumpet player in The Muppet Show orchestra. She played the trumpet in the orchestra from the first through the fourth seasons. In the show's fifth season, because of the addition of trumpeter Lips to the band, Trumpet Girl permanently took up the trombone, which she first played in episode 415. In season five, her eyes were shown open for the first time. She had a brief line in episode 123, where she was performed by Eren Ozker.
The Whatnot puppet was also used in utility functions, often seen as a chorus girl and as an unnamed dancer in "At the Dance" sketches during the first season. She made a rare appearance with open eyelids in episode 105. In the latter, she was played by Frank Oz and Louise Gold.
The character had no other name; the Muppet Show scripts referred to her simply as "Trumpet Girl." [1]
