Hungry Like the Wolf is a fast-paced comedy that dives into the complexities of women's labor rights through the lens of the Willmar Eight, a group of eight women who led a significant bank strike in 1977. Written by Sandra Struthers, the play intertwines elements of personal storytelling and 1980s pop culture, featuring engaging themes such as the impact of McCarthyism and a young woman's obsession with the band Duran Duran. The production offers a humorous yet thought-provoking exploration of justice, heroism, and community, reflecting on how to advocate for equity and envision a better future.

History Theatre entertains, educates, and engages through creating, developing, and producing new and existing works that explore Minnesota's past and the diverse American experience. Its work provides a unique lens which links our past to the present, explores our common heritage, and illuminates our understanding of what it means to be American. Since its founding in 1978 by Lynn Lohr and Lance Belville, the company has staged more than 100 world premieres, working with nationally recognized playwrights including Jeffrey Hatcher, Eric Simonson, Kevin Kling, Craig Wright, Frank McCourt, Doris Baizley, Melanie Marnich, Kim Hines, John Olive, and Kira Obolensky. From a harrowing slave journey to St. Paul in Adrift on the Mississippi to an urban musical celebration of the Twin Cities in Snapshots: Life in the City, from the rock 'n' roll biography Buddy – The Buddy Holly Story to the dark, complex A Piece of the Rope about Minnesota's first public execution, History Theatre has moved audiences to rediscover, relive, and respect every piece of their history.
History Theatre is at 30 East 10th Street, St.Paul, MN.
