Description

National Theatre of Scotland, originally created with Improbable
Scotland, UK / England, UK

Lucy hears a muffled, scratching noise at night and thinks there are wolves living in the walls of her house. Her parents don’t believe her. That is, until the wolves come out...

This comic-book-scary story makes you laugh, shriek and watch the shadows a little more closely. Based on The New York Times bestselling book by Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean, The Wolves in the Walls has been brought to glorious life by the outstanding National Theatre of Scotland with London's renowned Improbable theater company. Created by NTS’s Vicky Featherstone, noted musician Nick Powell, and Improbable’s Julian Crouch, whose award-winning Shockheaded Peter debuted at the New Victory in 2000 prior to an Off-Broadway run, this “musical pandemonium” is spooky fun for adults and children alike.

With captivating music and lyrics, luminous projections, and eerily lifelike puppets, The Wolves in the Walls “…both conjures monsters and defeats them” (The Guardian). Winner of the Best Show for Children and Young People (London’s 2006 TMA Awards), Wolves is a show for everyone over 6 who is not a scaredy cat...

“Endearingly terrifying...Like Bambi with fangs.” (The Guardian)
