Get ready to embark on an epic, fantasy-fueled 90s adventure when "She Kills Monsters," the fast-paced comedy by acclaimed playwright Qui Nguyen, comes to the stage this December. Directed by Heather Megill, this fantastical production will run from Dec. 6 – 15, 2024, with performances on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday matinees at 2:30 p.m. in the Studio Theatre at Palomar College’s San Marcos campus. In this comedic and heartwarming adventure into the world of Dungeons & Dragons, "She Kills Monsters" follows Agnes Evans, a 24-year-old English teacher in Athens, Ohio, in the year 1995. After losing her parents and younger sister Tilly in a car crash, she delves into Tilly’s role-playing game campaign to uncover the truth about Tilly’s secret life. What begins as a simple quest to understand her sister’s hidden world soon escalates into a wild, action-packed journey, where Agnes faces off against homicidal fairies, menacing creatures, and the mother of dragons, Tiamat. As Agnes immerses herself in the fantastical realm Tilly created, she not only battles fantastical monsters but also confronts her fears, grief, and long-held misconceptions about her sister. Qui Nguyen’s script masterfully blends humor, fantasy, and self-discovery, creating a thrilling homage to the geek culture that has shaped generations of fans. Full of vibrant characters and explosive battles, "She Kills Monsters" also explores themes of identity, family, and the power of storytelling, making it a must-see for theatergoers of all backgrounds. “This show is an epic journey through a fantastical land straight into the human heart,” director Heather Megill shares. “It is a humorous story of grief, growth, acceptance, and love, through which we realize that sometimes the monsters we battle are within us. 'She Kills Monsters' is an adventurous, funny, touching, and empowering tale of heroes, villains, and human nature.” Parking is free in lots 1 & 15 for this performance.
