SLTC Presents Powerful Production
On January 5 and 6, SLTC (St. Luke's Theatre Company)—comprised of Upper School Advanced Acting class students—performed Sarah DeLappe's Pulitzer Prize-nominated The Wolves.
This production about a girls’ soccer team, presented in the Wyckoff Family Black Box Theatre, had the audience's seats surrounding the stage-turned-turf field. The close connection only added to this powerful play that had the audience laughing, crying, and gasping with surprise. As the director Jason Peck shared, “It is so rare to find material where our actors can take on characters their own age, tackle issues that they understand or that they might be living, and speak like they might with their peers.”
After the Saturday evening performance, former St. Luke’s parent and The Fund for Women and Girls Director Patti Russo and LiveGirl Director Sherri West moderated a heartfelt panel that included the actors. Peck added, “It was a true gift to work on this play that had something to say and a lasting impact on everyone involved.”
