Upcoming Shows
She Kills Monsters (Black Box)
By: Qui Nguyen
She Kills Monsters is an exciting and nostalgic romp through the ultimate game of Dungeons & Dragons. This equally tender and hilarious story follows Agnes as she finds a D&D module in her late younger sister’s room and decides to embark on an adventure where monsters come in many forms, good companions always have your back, and even grief can be conquered. Imaginatively directed, designed, and acted by students, the production will draw the audience into the world of the game providing fun and laughs for nerds and non-nerds alike.
