Britain's What's On Event Guide
Roadside
Free-spirited Milly is drawn to the parties and festivals of the new travelling community. She dances, talks and explores – looking for a different kind of life for herself. Does she want to live a life on the road, like the people she meets beside the fire and by their vans?
What is living on the road really like and can Milly find a place for herself there?
A one-person show inspired by the personal experience of Roadside’s writer & performer, Maddie Wakeling, and featuring real-life testimony from new travellers living across the South West.
