“Thrilling… probing and playful… [Wolf Play] suggests there’s an animality connecting us that transcends gender, social scripts; kinship and love are wild and don’t play by the rules.”

Naveen Kumar, The New York Times

When an online adoption process goes sideways, the young boy caught in the middle launches himself into a lone wolf’s journey to find a pack he can call his own. From South Korean playwright Hansol Jung, one of the most imaginative story tellers in the field, comes a wild new play employing puppetry, boxing, and crackling dialogue to tell the affecting story of trust, love, identity, and the families we choose and unchoose.
