Too often, narratives in geek culture focus on the guys. It fits with the stereotype of what geeks are considered to be. Just some guy covered in Cheeto dust, chugging back a Mountain Dew while locking himself up in his mother's basement to live out a fantasy quest where he defeats a dragon and gets the girl. But what about the girls who also want to save the day? This is at the heart of SHE KILLS MONSTERS, now running at Theatre Baton Rouge as part of their Turner-Fischer series.
