Something's not right. Children are being raised by animals. A mother is slowly sinking in the bath. The trees are left doing the paperwork. The air is filled with screams of children howling for help. And some twins want to tell you a story about how everything got so fucked up.

A spiralling odyssey of dizzying theatricality, Wolfie is a bold, fantastical fairytale following two twins separated at birth and asks who is truly responsible for society's most vulnerable children.

It was premiered at Theatre503, London, in March 2019, directed by Theatre503 Artistic Director Lisa Spirling.

"Wild, raw, full of fury and wonder, this debut play is a ragged thing of ferocious beauty... Willis’s writing snarls, snaps, howls at the moon and gazes at the stars; it is tender, thrillingly vital and glittering with hope." ⁠—The Times
