“The Wolves,” a Pulitzer Prize finalist written by Sarah DeLappe, will open at the Southampton Cultural Center on Friday, September 5, at 7 p.m. The production will continue with performances on Saturday, September 6, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m., and Sunday, September 7, at 7 p.m.
Directed by Allen O’Reilly, who recently helmed “Much Ado About Nothing” at Sylvester Manor, the play explores the raw intensity of adolescence through the lens of an indoor soccer team. Robin Aren serves as producer for the limited run. The production features a cast of both local and New York City-based actresses.
The play, praised for its unflinching portrayal of young women navigating the pressures of teenage life, has received critical acclaim. The New York Times described it as “an incandescent portrait of an indoor soccer team,” with reviewer Ben Brantley noting, “The scary, exhilarating brightness of raw adolescence emanates from every scene ... and at times, your instinct is to shade your eyes.”
Tickets for “The Wolves” are $33.42 for adults and $23.02 for students at scc-arts.org/the-wolves/. Southampton Cultural Center is at 25 Pond Lane in Southampton.
