The Wolves
November 12 - 15, 2025
The Wolves by Sarah DeLappe is a coming-of-age play that follows a girls' high school indoor
soccer team as they navigate adolescence, identity, and the complexities of growing
up. Set entirely during their pre-game warmups over several weeks, the play captures
the overlapping, often chaotic conversations of the players as they discuss everything
from global politics to personal anxieties. Through their interactions, rivalries,
and moments of vulnerability, the girls grapple with issues of friendship, ambition,
trauma, and belonging. The play offers an honest, nuanced portrayal of teenage girlhood
and the unspoken bonds that form within a team.
