About this show
Attention: multiple new occurrences are now confirmed and verified. Healthy citizens must report to their safehouses by sunset and shelter in place. Three ill-equipped wardens keep watch over a makeshift community who must learn to work together. But as the threat outside takes shape, the atmosphere inside begins to turn. A gripping blend of thriller and comedy that pulls you into an immersive world of suspicion, survival and uneasy laughter. With heart-pounding sound design, razor-sharp performances and a daring, darkly funny style, this international cult hit asks: when night falls – who do you trust? * (BritishTheatreGuide.info).

Baxendale, Reid and Kelly handle the considerable improvisation impressively, reacting to an audience whose responses inevitably make every performance different.
— North West End UK (3 out of 5 stars)
3.5 Stars Ultimately, Werewolf has an inventive premise and performers who are more than capable of bringing it to life
Lots of jump scares, lots of laughter and lots of audience engagement.
