Robin wants a kid. But she’s not doing it the old-fashioned way. She’s found him online. And now he’s here. In this theatre. And her wife is not on-board. The impacts of Robin’s decision ripple through her newly-formed family creating consequences animal in nature. Caught in the middle, the child launches himself on a lone wolf’s journey to find a pack he can call his own.

In this wildly theatrical tale about the families we choose and unchoose, Hansol Jung’s Wolf Play hunts for familial connection in the wilds of 21st century America. Wolf Play is a messy, funny, disturbing theatrical experience grappling with a wolf, a puppet, and the very prickly problem of “What is a family, and what do we need from families today? Is it very different from what humans have needed from families before?”
