The Road That Went Home is about the journey of Rocky and his friends from the inner city freeway entrance; through an industrial landscape where Fac lives; on to houses where we meet Biddle; to open fields where we meet Coo and Shep; and finally to Rocky's beginning in a mountain meadow.

The play explores the integrity of our natural environment, the need to follow our intuition, such as Rocky the Road's dream to return to his starting point, and the importance of freedom, rest and relaxation in our busy lives. Students gain an understanding of the purpose of change, growth and following treasured dreams in their own lives, and of the importance of being responsible for one's actions.
