Paulina Palomo of Gould was among students performing in “The Wolves,” the first production of the spring 2019 semester at Eastern Connecticut State University at Willimantic, Conn.
Palomo, who majors in theatre, played the role of soccer player #14. She was among those who made the production a success, according to a news release.
“The Wolves,” is a coming-of-age story that takes place on the turf of a local indoor soccer field. The event was performed Feb. 27 through March 3 with an all-female cast.
“As the girls stretch, run drills and kick the soccer ball among each other, their conversations explore abortion, immigration, eating disorders, sexual assault and other difficult topics,” according to the release.
Theatre Professor Kristen Morgan directed the play written by award-winning playwright Sarah DeLappe, according to the release.
