In 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.</p> <hr /><p><strong>What the reviewers said:</strong></p> <p>“A small piece of everyday magic.” **** 4/5 stars A YOUNGER THEATRE, EDINBURGH</p> <p>"Thoroughly enchanting and totally engrossing, The Road That Wasn’t There is a must see show for all ages."
