Casting has been announced for the Lyric Stage Company of Boston's production of Sarah DeLappe's The Wolves, running January 11-February 3 under the direction of A. Nora Long.

The production will feature Lydia Barnett-Mulligan, Sarah Elizabeth Bedar, Simone Black, Olivia Z. Cote, Chelsea Evered, Grace Experience, Laura Latreille, Julia Lennon, Valerie Terranova, and Jarielle Whitney.

The creative team will include Shelley Barish (scenic design), Amanda Mujica (costume design), Karen Perlow (lighting design), Elizabeth Cahill (sound design), and Olivia Levine (soccer coach). Christina Mei Chen serves as assistant director and understudy.

The Wolves is described as follows: "Left quad. Right quad. Lunge. A girls' indoor soccer team warms up. From the safety of their suburban stretch circle, the team navigates big questions and wages tiny battles with all the vigor of a pack of adolescent warriors."
