The Wolves
“The Wolves” by Sarah DeLappe is a contemporary play that follows the experiences of a high school girls’ indoor soccer team. The drama unfolds entirely during their pre-game warm-ups as nine teenage girls navigate complex issues of adolescence, identity, and social dynamics while demonstrating their athletic skills. Through their conversations about everything from politics and humanitarian crises to relationships and personal tragedies, DeLappe creates a powerful portrait of young women coming of age. The play is notable for its authentic dialogue, overlapping conversations, and its focus on female athletes as complex individuals rather than stereotypes. “The Wolves” was a finalist for the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and has been praised for its fresh perspective on teenage girlhood and female camaraderie.
“The Wolves” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com

The Pirates of Penzance
Pirates of Penzance
Music by Arthur Sullivan
Libretto by W. S. Gilbert.
Director – Kristi Shamburger, Will Perkins
Music Director – Joseph Walker
“The Pirates of Penzance” is a comic operetta by Gilbert and Sullivan that premiered in 1879. The story follows young Frederic, who was mistakenly apprenticed to a band of tender-hearted pirates until his 21st birthday. Upon completing his indenture, he decides to leave piracy behind and dedicates himself to exterminating pirates. He falls in love with Mabel, the daughter of Major-General Stanley, but complications arise when the Pirate King reveals that Frederic was born on February 29th in a leap year, meaning technically he’s only had five birthdays, not 21. Due to his strong sense of duty, Frederic reluctantly agrees to remain with the pirates until his actual 21st birthday—63 years later. The operetta features memorable characters, witty wordplay, and beloved musical numbers including “I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General” and “Poor Wandering One,” before concluding with a clever twist that allows for a happy ending.

Clue: On Stage
Written by Jonathan Lynn
“Based on the iconic 1985 Paramount movie which was inspired by the classic Hasbro board game, Clue is a hilarious farce-meets-murder mystery. The tale begins at a remote mansion, where six mysterious guests assemble for an unusual dinner party where murder and blackmail are on the menu. When their host turns up dead, they all become suspects. Led by Wadsworth – the butler, Miss Scarlet, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock and Colonel Mustard race to find the killer as the body count stacks up. Clue is the comedy whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure out…WHO did it, WHERE, and with WHAT! “
