The Boy who cried Wolf

A one hour show for children aged 3+ and their families. Tickets £10

Winter is coming, the trees are bare, the birds fly south, and the sheep are flocking, seeking shelter from the wind.
As the falling snow flurries to the ground wolf footprints can be seen padded into the hard ground…….

But standing on the hill top a boy is watching his sheep.
He is bored, seeking adventure, and looking for the next best thing!
A boy tasked to keep his community safe but with a vivid imagination.
A boy who makes up stories and craves the thrill of the unknown
A boy who, unthinkingly, unknowingly…………. Cried WOLF!

A beautiful new wintery tale about a boy, unable to find delight in what is around him and instead seeks adventure, excitement and the thrill of the unknown! Inspired by the famous Aesop fable this wonderful play has a gifted ensemble of actor musicians who play the delightful characters, funny sheep and perhaps a scary wolf or two……

"As an introduction to theatre it can’t be bettered. It’s beautifully paced, performed with a sincerity that doesn’t patronise." Yorkshire Post

"At first I thought that it would be a difficult tale to tell and keep the children engaged, but how wrong I was. The theatre was fairly full of school children, who within minutes were roaring with laughter at the woolly-hatted sheep wriggling their bottoms and at just 55 minutes long – the time flew by." whatsgoodtodo.com
