Two Wolves
by Tristan Bancks

AUGUST 2018

A stage adaptation from the award winning novel.

An old man tells his grandson one evening that there is a battle raging inside him, inside all of us. A terrible battle between two wolves. One wolf is bad – pride, jealousy, greed. The other wolf is good – kindness, hope, truth. The child asks, “Who will win?” The grandfather answers simply, “The one you feed”.  

One afternoon, the police pay a visit to Ben’s home. Minutes after they leave, his parents arrive. Ben and his little sister Olive are bundled into the car and told they’re going on a holiday. Which is weird, because Ben’s family never goes on holidays. Things aren’t right and Ben knows it. His parents are on the run. So Ben and Olive are running too. Ben gathers evidence and tries to uncover what his parents have done. The trouble is, if he figures it out, what does he do next? Tell someone? Or keep the secret and live life on the run?

Produced by BANG! Academy of Performing Arts, TWO WOLVES is a page to stage adaptation of the award-winning novel by Tristan Bancks. It is an engaging and suspenseful story combining physical theatre, visual effects and engineered soundscape which will appeal to an audience aged 10+.
