She Kills Monsters

"It will slash and shapeshift its way into your heart." The New York Times

Agnes is an average teenager growing up in the 1990's. Her sister, Tilly, is anything but average. When Tilly dies in a car accident Agnes finds Tilly's Dungeons & Dragons notebook, and stumbles into a journey of discovery and action-packed adventure in the imaginary world that was Tilly's refuge. How does Tilly deal with the bullying and pressure of her young life? She creates a world where the bullies and monsters are defeated! In this high-octane dramatic comedy complete with a demon queen, dark elf, homicidal fairy, D&D monsters, and 90s pop culture, acclaimed young playwright Qui Nguyen offers a heart-pounding homage to the geek and warrior within us all.

"A heart-warming tale of girl power, geek power, and learning to be and love exactly who you are." Chicago Tribune
