FAMILY IS COMPLICATED.

SURVIVAL IS HARDER.

Somewhere between a boxing gym and a living room, a wolf is looking for a pack. When a young boy is re-homed through an online message board, a queer couple takes him in, unaware that he sees himself not as a boy, but as something wilder. As tensions rise and identities clash, instinct begins to surface.

Performances WILL BE 300 E. Broad st, Richmond, VA 23219

  • "A deeply resonant work from one of the American theater’s most complex new voices."

    Chicago Tribune

  • “A gorgeous, devastating play.”

    New York Sun

  • “Thrilling... portrays a traumatic situation, but with an antic disposition and a goofy heart... there’s a lightness here that chases away the shadows.”

    The New York Times

  • “Great theatre... Jung is in a class of her own. She wields language like a poet. Her lyrical, precise script perfectly captures our best and worst natures. The play simultaneously celebrates our extraordinary capacity for love, exposes our nastiest inclinations toward selfishness, and admonishes the injustices of our social systems.”

    — Broadway Wold

  • “Mischievous... grips you with both its facts and its fictions. Jung’s play is based on grim real-life experiences; The fantastical touch of the puppet and the Wolf... lightens the experience with humor... pulling you in emotionally so the punches land when your guard is down.”
