CHS Theatre department presents “She Kills Monsters”

The Claremont High School Theatre department presents “She Kills Monsters,” a production by Qui Nguyen, directed by CHS Alum Greg McGoon.

The play will be mounted on March 17, 18 and 19 at 7 p.m. at the Don F. Fruechte Theatre for the Performing Arts, 1601 N. Indian Hill Blvd., on the CHS campus. A matinee performance will be held on March 19 at 2 p.m.

“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 finds a notebook containing a game scenario created by her sister. She discovers that Tilly was a well-known Dungeons and 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,” a news release read. “Chock-full of supermodel elves, dominatrix warrior women, and nasty ogres, ‘She Kills Monsters’ is a surprisingly sweet tale of friendship, loss, and acceptance.”

Attendees are advised that there is an adult content warning as explicit language, sexuality, loss and grief will be present in the play.

Online presale tickets are $12 or $15 at the door. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit chstheatre2129.com, or call (909) 624-9053 ext. 30463. You can also purchase ticket via Instagram when visiting the page @skekillsmonsters_chs.
