“I think your son just made ten thousand pounds…”
Manny dreams of being a big dog - but right now he’s hocking fake designer goods, living with his mum and dealing with her new boyfriend. The glittery skyscrapers of Canary Wharf he sees out the window every day have never seemed so far away.
But when his best friend offers him a way to make money faster than he could ever imagine, he pulls his whole family into a world that’s almost too good to be true.
Wolves on Road is a thrilling deep-dive into the mysterious world of cryptocurrency, revealing how ambition and hope can be exploited, no matter the system at play.
This fast, funny and furious world premiere from Beru Tessema (House of Ife) is directed by Bush Theatre’s Associate Artistic Director, Daniel Bailey (Red Pitch, August in England), in a co-production with Tamasha.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Wolves On Road
Wolves on Road – Bush Theatre | Review
6 / 10
It’s not clear, at least not to me, whether this is meant to be a play about crypto (every single character has a reason to express strong emotions and opinions on it at some point or other) more than it is meant to be about family dynamics and cross-cultural clashes. The active role of the Church in Manny’s community, and therefore in this story, is interesting to note in an era of declining religious adherence. Perhaps the good book has a point when it talks about nobody being able to serve two masters at once. A strong cast but a sprawling narrative make for a mixed bag of comedy and confrontation.
Wolves on Road review – high-tempo crypto tale offers poor return
4 / 10
By the end, any losses have come out in the wash. No one on stage has been seriously changed or challenged, and nor have we. As morals go, “You win some, you lose some” feels like a poor return on an audience’s investment.
