She Kills Monsters is an action-packed comedy; fighting through themes of teen angst, second chances, and accepting self-identity. Agnes plays through a D&D campaign created by her younger sister, fighting homicidal ferries, gelatinous boyfriends, and a large Bulette. The audience has permission to let go of reality and engage with their inner geek while playing D&D with us. I wanted to give the audience a feeling as if they are figures on Tilly’s map.
"Clearly, one of the sheer joys of this production is its masterful visual environment that serves both the real world and the fantasy one.
Creating the environment of the fantasy world was scenic designer DJ Pike who transformed the theatre-in-the-round into a contained thrust stage arrangement."
