The Wolf at the End of the Block
THE STORY: The fifth play in the Rightlynd saga. Gripping and fast-paced, The Wolf at the End of the Block follows Abe, a resident of Chicago’s fictional Rightlynd neighborhood, as he hunts for justice after an intense late-night encounter at a boarded-up bar. Abe’s search soon entangles his sister, his boss, and a morally gray reporter in a web of mystery and truth. With time running out, the play uncovers each character’s hidden motives, culminating in a dramatic finale filled with unforeseen twists and revelations.
“Ike Holter’s THE WOLF AT THE END OF THE BLOCK is as clear, impassioned, blistering and heartfelt an explanation of that how and why [that many Chicagoans of color report feeling uneasy around Chicago police officers] as you could ever hope to see.” —Chicago Tribune.
“At just under ninety minutes, Wolf is as close to a complete portrait of our current state of social and political disarray as any play I’ve seen claiming the catchall tag of relevance in the past several years.” —NewCity Stage.
