Overview
Silas is from a family of shepherds and has to do right by his mom and granddad as he reluctantly takes on the responsibility of watching their sheep up on the mountain over the winter. But he’s bored, lonely, and missing out on the fun of the annual knitting competition in town, so he cries - “Wolf!”
Written by playwright Mike Kenny, created by UK-based company tutti fruit, and inspired by Aesop’s famous fable, this is a beautiful wintery tale features a gifted ensemble of actor/musicians who play instruments and sing live as they embody all the delightful characters, including hilarious sheep and perhaps a scary wolf or two… All set in a village of knitters, ultimately, Silas finds a place for himself (and his imagination) in his warm woolly community.
