She Kills Monsters tells the story of Agnes Evans, an average teenager, who loses her little sister Tilly in a car accident. Having been distant from her sister while she was alive, Agnes embarks on an adventure to get to know Tilly by playing a Dungeons & Dragons module that Tilly wrote before her death. As she delves deeper into her quest, fantasy and reality collide as Agnes realizes how much of her sister she never knew. Qui Nguyen, who wrote the play in 2011, has created a new version specifically for Zoom, which will be used in this production.
Zoom is an exciting new hybrid medium that offers amazing opportunities in unexpected ways. This show features epic battle scenes, pre-recorded video mashups, and special effects courtesy of softwares like OBS and Voicemod. In the midst of COVID-19, we were searching for an opportunity to come together and make theater once again, and Zoom allows us to do so in a way we never could before. This cast is spread all across the United States, and the community building of putting this performance together has impacted our lives in the best way possible.
