<\/strong>Directed by Sophie Wheeler ’25<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Korean boy is ushered into a new house by his adopted American father. This new house belongs to an American boxer and their wife. American father un-adopts boy by a single signature on a piece of paper. But just before he leaves the new house, ex-father discovers that the new parents, to whom he has “re-homed” his ex-son, are a lesbian couple. American ex-father spends the rest of the play trying to get the boy back. In his corner is Ryan, the boxer’s coach and their wife’s brother. Ryan doesn’t like the new Korean boy, who is a bit weird.

Wolf Play <\/em>is a messy, funny, disturbing theatrical experience grappling with a wolf, a puppet and the very prickly problem of \u201cWhat is a family, and what do we need from families today? Is it very different from what humans have needed from families before?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
