Wolves
For family audiences
How dangerous is it to stray from the path, and who is it dangerous for?
The wolf pack community and nurturing family is set against the dangers of the big bad wolf, in a playful world that sways between littered and tidied to wild and domesticated. Wolves looks at the moral guidance given across generations; from morality tales told throughout history to cautionary tales of the present day.
Performed by an intergenerational cast of dance artists including older performers, teenagers and children with live music by Mairi Campbell set to an evocative score by Luke Sutherland.
