The Cuckoo's Theater Project To Present SHE KILLS MONSTERS By Qui Nguyen
A comedic romp into the world of fantasy role-playing games, 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 stumbles into a journey of discovery and action-packed adventure in the imaginary world that was Tilly'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.
The cast includes TCTP Company Member Hilary Griffin (Agnes), TCTP Company Member Jillian Leff (Tilly), Matthew Torres (Chuck), Graham Carlson (Miles), LaKecia Haris (Vera), Erika Lebby (Lilith), Arianne Kraiman (Kaliope), Zach Tabor (Orcus), Madeline Bernhard (Narrator), Michael Charles Saubert Jr. (Steve/Ensemble), Liz Lengyel (Evil Gabbi/Ensemble), Keyanna Khatiblou (Evil Tina/Ensemble), Elisabeth Del Toro (Farrah/Ensemble), Dina Monk (Agnes/Vera/Narrator U/S), Katy Campbell (Tilly/Lilith/Kaliope U/S), River Denman (Male U/S), and Lucia Frisancho (Gabbi/Tina/Farrah U/S)
