Agnes would never be caught dead playing Dungeons and Dragons. But after the sudden loss of her parents and younger sister Tilly, she finds herself grieving in an unexpected way. While Agnes and Tilly were distant in life, Agnes finds a surprising new connection to her sister after discovering Tilly's notebook containing a game scenario. Playing the game Tilly designed, Agnes embarks on a journey filled with dungeon masters, fierce LGBTQI+ warriors, homicidal fairies, raunchy ogres, and bloodthirsty cheerleaders as fantasy and reality start to merge in this hilarious and heart-wrenching show from Emmy Award-winner Qui Nguyen.
She Kills Monsters contains adult language, mild staged violence, and some mature themes. Recommended for ages 13+.

18-year-old Samantha Brown sits in her car with keys in her hand, unable to turn the key. Torn between the expectations of her mother and the hopes of her impetuous best friend, Sam relives her senior year and the unexpected loss that led her here. With a score that inspired a generation of musical theatre lovers, The Mad Ones is a cult-hit musical filled with humor and heart which asks the question: is it better to follow the path laid out or throw out the map and chart a new route?
