This is a story about a girl who followed a map off the edge of the world…In Aotearoa / New Zealand there are some 56,000 kilometres of paper roads – streets and towns that exist only on surveyors’ maps. Or do they? A young woman strays from the beaten track and finds herself in a paper world. It seems a land of possibility but she soon discovers that things that happen in the fictional world can have frighteningly real consequences.
From Trick of the Light Theatre (The Bookbinder) comes an award-winning production drawn from the twitchy edges of children’s literature – a dark fable in the vein of Pan’s Labyrinth. Combining puppetry, shadow play, and live music, The Road That Wasn’t There is a captivating cross-over work for adults and older children (10+).
“Charming, funny and haunting in equal measure… A storytelling triumph“ – Word on the Street
“Thoroughly enchanting and totally engrossing… a must see show” – The Dominion Post
