This December, head to Wolf! at Theatre by the Lake for a magical winter adventure and find out what happens when Jack cries ‘WOLF’!

Beneath the snowy peaks and under the twinkling winter moon, amongst a fluffy flock of sheep, Jack finds himself hopelessly bored. He’s bored with sheep-watching, bored with sheep-counting—basically, just bored of sheep in general! Jack is desperate for a change of scenery. And wait, down in the village, a hushed rumour of a wolf’s presence is about to make the village people rather anxious…

Intrigued? Well, hold onto your mittens, because Wolf! is not your ordinary tale. With original melodies that will make your heart sing and stunning puppetry that’ll transport you to a new, magical realm, this show is a breathtaking re-imagination of a story you thought you knew, The Boy Who Cried Wolf, brought to life by award-winning family theatre, Kitchen Zoo.

Perfect for kids aged 6 and under and their grown-ups, this performance of Wolf! at Theatre by the Lake is bound to put a smile on your face. Everyone is invited to come on in, snuggle up, participate and make some extra loud noise… Waoooooooooooooo! Be part of this enchanting adventure where imagination knows no bounds, book your tickets today.

Wolf! is running from 12-31 December, so it could be booked as a perfect Christmas treat or a special celebratory experience to welcome in 2024. Find out more about Wolf! by watching the trailer below.
