Playhouse South Presents Qui Nguyen's SHE KILLS MONSTERS

She Kills Monsters is 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 young playwright Qui Nguyen offers a heart-pounding homage to the geek and warrior within us all.

She Kills Monsters was written by Vietnamese American playwright and fight director Qui Nguyen. The play premiered in New York City at the Flea Theater on November 4, 2011 under the direction of Robert Ross Parker, with Jim Simpson as Artistic Director and Carol Ostrow as Producing Director. She Kills Monsters was the winner of the 2013 AATE Distinguished Play Award.

Playhouse South's production of She Kills Monsters is Directed by Aaron Eechaute-Lopez, with Assistant Director Jordan Eechaute-Lopez.
