Wolves Are Coming For You (NHB Modern Plays)

Someone has seen a wolf. Where did it come from? How many are there? Someone must be able to do something about them. Otherwise, how will our children get to school? And how will we all get to line-dancing in the village hall? Set over one extraordinary day in an ordinary village, Wolves Are Coming For You is a play for two actors - or many more - exploring just how much wild we're comfortable with. Joel Horwood's play was first performed in a co-production between Pentabus Theatre Company and Everyman Theatre Cheltenham in 2017, on a tour of the UK.
