SHEWOLVES is a funny, uplifting and empowering play about the power of sisterhood and the underestimated smartness of teens.

Armed with a backpack full of Pop-tarts and a hunger to tackle climate change, 14-year-olds Priya and Lou embark on a covert expedition into the wild. But as the wilderness closes in around them, can the teenagers overcome their differences to make their voices heard?
