“ I saw this riveting production at ACT in Seattle. So few scripts accomplish the feat of creating genuine lives of teenagers, let alone teenage girls. Sarah DeLappe does this with a masterful ear for dialogue, and clever theatrical conventions - Young female characters identified only as their numbers hits the audience with a jolt of anxiety, melancholy, and compassion simultaneously. The dialogue of American youth is pure and deliberately unvarnished, and it is so impressive to see the how the characters are introduced in a manner that defies cliché and predictable characterizations. This script is a masterclass in ensemble playwriting. ”

“ I was fortunate enough to see The Wolves in production at Ohio University and experienced Delappe's electrifying and zesty dialogue being passed between the actors like a soccer ball first hand. I also deeply appreciate how the play begins as "all fun and games" until hardships and insecurities start building and building until, as in life, tragedy and hardship strike. The girls ban together, tear apart, laugh, cry, call each other "bitch" and tell each other "I love you" in this wild roller coaster back to adolescence and leaves the viewer amazed of how far we've come in our packs. ”

“ Such a powerful and timely play! The characters are vibrant and diverse––while I don't always love a group protagonist, THE WOLVES certainly manages to make the concept shine! ”

“ The young ladies depicted in this story must navigate through some of the wildest, untamed, and most dangerous territory: adolescence. This wolf pack has each other to rely on during the journey, but there are also many challenges for dominance. They’re playing a game, but be assured- blood, sweat, and tears are all part of the deal here, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. DeLappe has crafted a coming of age tale that unquestionably redefines the genre. A stunning work. ”
