Content warning [May contain spoilers]
"Are you judging them? I know they’re geeks, you’re a geek, we’re all geeks."
She Kills Monsters tells the story of Agnes Evans as she leaves her childhood home in Ohio following the death of her teenage sister, Tilly. When Agnes finds Tilly’s Dungeons & Dragons notebook, however, she finds herself catapulted into a journey of discovery and action-packed adventure in the imaginary world that was her sister’s refuge.
In this high-octane dramatic comedy laden with homicidal fairies, nasty ogres, and 90s pop culture, acclaimed playwright Qui Nguyen offers a heart-pounding homage to the geek and warrior within us all.
CUADC bring She Kills Monsters to the Corpus Playroom stage as one of this year's Freshers’ Plays.
This production is suitable for ages 12 and over.
