THE WOLVES

by Sarah DeLappe
Directed by Mark Kuntz
MAY 31 - JUNE 10, 2018

A portrait of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for nine American girls who just want to score some goals.

Left quad. Right quad. Lunge. A girls indoor soccer team warms up.

From the safety of their suburban stretch circle, the team navigates big questions and wages tiny battles with all the vim and vigor of a pack of adolescent warriors.

A portrait of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for nine American girls who just want to score some goals.

A Message From the Playwright:
I wanted to see a portrait of teenage girls as human beings as complicated, nuanced, very idiosyncratic people who weren’t just girlfriends or sex objects or manic pixie dream girls but who were athletes and daughters and students and scholars and people who were trying actively to figure out who they were in this changing world around them.

The New York Times Critic’s Pick

“The scary, exhilarating brightness of raw adolescence emanates from every scene of this uncannily assured first play by Sarah DeLappe."
—THE NEW YORK TIMES

“The Wolves is a delightful meditation on society, sex, and soccer [...] DeLappe's dialogue is hilarious and idiosyncratic, moving swiftly from gross-out humor to pain [...] She offers us ninety minutes in a smart, sympathetic, female world. It's a patch of Astroturf I would gladly set foot on again."
—THE VILLAGE VOICE

"A milestone for women in entertainment."
—FORBES MAGAZINE
