Hungry Like the Wolf | History Theatre

Hungry Like the Wolf

By Sandra Struthers
Directed by Laura Leffler

March 21–April 12, 2026


Playwright Sandra Struthers delivers a thought-provoking new comedy that dives into the critical, ongoing fight for labor rights and gender equity. The production launches from the groundbreaking history of the Willmar Eight, the women who led the first American bank strike right here in Minnesota. This dynamic piece uses this historical foundation to explore related themes, including the subsequent '80s film, McCarthyism, and the political life of director Lee Grant. It is an unforgettable blend of history, humor, and essential social commentary, all punctuated by an infectious '80s energy and a fierce Duran Duran obsession.
