Iowa Conservatory’s She Kills Monsters

October 27 @ 2:00 pm - 4:30 pm

$16 – $23

This fall, Iowa Conservatory will be performing Qui Nguyen’s iconic play, She Kills Monsters! A funny yet heartwrenching tale of love, loss, and adventure, She Kills Monsters follows Agnes Evans’ quest to get to know her recently deceased sister through her favorite game: Dungeons & Dragons. 

 

She Kills Monsters tells the story of Agnes Evans, a young woman grieving for her deceased sister. The Evans sisters never were especially close, but after Tilly’s death Agnes receives a notebook containing a game scenario created by her sister. She discovers that Tilly was a well-known Dungeons & Dragons player, and that she was passionate about online fantasy gaming. In order to unlock more secrets about her mysterious young sibling, Agnes recruits a “dungeon master” named Chuck to help her understand and grieve Tilly. Chock-full of supermodel elves, dominatrix warrior women, and nasty ogres, She Kills Monsters is a surprisingly sweet tale of friendship, loss, and acceptance.
