Nine girls. One team. A world much bigger than the field.
From the safety of their pre-game warmups, a girls’ indoor soccer team navigates a world of competition, friendship, ambition, uncertainty, and growing up. As they stretch, drill, and prepare for battle on the field, their overlapping conversations move effortlessly from school and relationships to politics, identity, and the complicated realities waiting beyond the sidelines.
Sarah DeLappe’s The Wolves offers an intimate and remarkably authentic glimpse into the lives of nine young women finding their places within a team—and within the world. Funny, raw, fast-paced, and deeply human, the play captures the rhythms of adolescence through conversations that are at once ordinary and revealing. As the season unfolds, the teammates confront unexpected challenges that test their friendships, their resilience, and their understanding of what it means to belong.
A finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, The Wolves is a powerful and critically acclaimed ensemble play about friendship, competition, loss, and the bonds that form when individual players become something greater together.
They’re teammates. They’re competitors. They’re growing up. And they’re ready to take the field.
