Check Please follows a series of blind dinner dates that couldn’t get any worse — until they do.

THE WOLVES Runs Feb. 6-16

Wright State University
Feb. 6-16
Festival Playhouse [Dayton]

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.
