XUT_The Wolves logoTHE WOLVES
Xavier University Theatre
Nov. 15-23
Gallagher Student Center Theater [Evanston]

Directed by Tiffany Nichole Greene

Cast: Lauren Davidson as 00, Olivia Pletcher as 2, Gigi Relic as 7, Becky Williams as 8, Victoria Forbes as 11, Kennedy Florence as 13, Lily Dennstaedt as 14, Holland Taylor as 23, Liv Hardy as 46 & Tina Boffa as Mom

Drive. Ambition. Endurance. Precision. We’re not talking about any high school girls’ soccer team; we’re talking about a pack of female warriors, determined to win. Infused with the raw jagged energy of youth, The Wolves offers a refreshingly complex depiction of girls navigating friendships, growing up, confronting the future—and trying to score a few goals. Immediate and timely, this ferociously contemporary coming-of-age drama explores the aggression and teamwork of sports and adolescence with an unflinching and compassionate eye. Adult language and situations.

In a Gotham-like city, a terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has led to a government-enforced ban on private toilets. The citizens must use public amenities, regulated by a single malevolent company that profits by charging admission for one of humanity’s most basic needs. Amid the people, a hero decides that he’s had enough and plans a revolution to lead them all to freedom!
