The Wolves by Sara DeLappe

During their pregame warmups, a girls’ soccer team contends with life’s big (and small) questions – with topics ranging from international social conflicts to sex to their coach’s obvious hangovers. These aspiring athletes navigate the realities of their changing worlds – and the world at large – all while awaiting the rapidly-approaching uncertainty of a post-high school future. Sarah DeLappe’s Pulitzer Prize-nominated play is a fast-paced slice of reality that is equal parts funny and enigmatic, offering a beautifully nuanced portrait of nine girls attempting to make sense of an overwhelming world.
