"It is 2040 and the Winter family, like everyone else in their neighbourhood, are poor and hungry but in good spirits. AI and robotics have taken jobs from almost all of the adults in Palmerston North. The only company hiring are Greet's Sweets and they're the worst, most horrible, mean and cruel bosses in the whole of Manawatu. Their sweets are just this side of legal and edible. And Greet's Sweets only hire children - so they can pay them minimally and treat them badly.

When Winnie Winter (retraining as a virtual Green City Guide) falls ill and the Winters risk losing their home, the Winter children do what only children can do ... Work. For Greet's Sweets. Is this the beginning of the end for the Winters? Grandpa Pat Winter - in the first stages of Alzheimers - always says, "What the world needs is imagination!" And... perhaps he's right!

Come and enjoy Lollyland - the Tall Poppies Junior production of 2025. It'll be a sweet treat for the whole family!"
