How does the creature manifest within and how do we track, hunt, and transform it?
We are thrilled to announce the Vancouver premiere of Cheyenne Scott’s Wolf Cull at the Historic Theatre from April 1-11, 2027 as part of The Cultch’s Warrior Festival🐺
Wolf Cull, is an edgy modern thriller where young Indigenous women utilize their traditional knowledge and relationship with the land to overcome their internal trauma. In the near future five young women – Rebel, Leader, Brawn, Wildcard and Skeptic – are drawn by a shared dream to the hunting grounds, where they uncover mysterious tracks that challenge their skills and the group’s fragile unity. A story of hope that empowers the women to defeat the shapeshifting creature.
Wolf Cull has been in development with Urban Ink since 2019 which has included a workshop production of the show as part of the 2025 TRANSFORM Festival at the Vancouver Playhouse, and we’re so excited for Vancouver audiences to experience it! Photo by @wildroan.photoco
ANATOMY OF A PACK
Featuring 8 local Indigenous artists, we come together to form our own pack inspired by Western Canada Theatre's closing production, Wolf Cull. Every member of the pack has a role, and the artists dive into what it means keep that inner wolf and how it can bite and claw and howl.
Working with director and playwright Cheyenne Scott, revisit the world of Wolf Cull and dive deeper into the creation of the play with behind the scenes photos, notes, and reflections of the production.

THANK YOU
It’s overwhelming to think of the support and heart from everyone on this team to bring this story to life. Everyone put a ton of effort into this project every day. Literal blood, sweat, and tears from this dynamic cast. Long hours, designing, and building from this local design team (honestly, you are all sleeping on these guys). The most reliable stage management team you could dream of. What a gift to have people you can count on.
I started this project in 2017 and now here we are. The World Premiere has come to a close. I am so happy with how the show turned out. It is beyond what I imagined. I absolutely love these characters. I am so grateful to the audiences that came to support me, and this project. Bare your teeth, and run free 🐺

SKEPTIC
Guts. Water. Unsure of herself. White presenting. New to the pack. No experience hunting. Queer but still questioning.

WILDCARD Nervous system. Lightning. Struggles with anxiety. Comes from a big family. Lives at her family camp fulltime. Not a hunter. A tracker and knows how to process the carcass.

REBEL
Ovaries. Moon. An empath who has learned to put her guard up to protect herself. Has lost her trust in everyone including herself. Was the Alpha but was unable to fulfill that role in a healthy way. The most experienced hunter. A visual artist.
WOLF CULL on now until May 10th

BRAWN
Muscle. Fire. Sporty and tough but loves a good lipstick, false eyelashes, and acrylic nails. A bit temperamental. Will kick your ass. Some experience with hunting.

LEADER
Brain. Earth. An intellectual trying to rule with her heart. Considerate but not afraid to put the pack in its place. Level-headed.
