Casting Teen Performers for "She Kills Monsters" Play
Seeking teen performers for the play "She Kills Monsters." See full details below. About the project: Agnes’ family was killed in a car crash. But that’s not what this play is about. Instead, it’s about Agnes discovering who her sister was (and maybe some new things about herself as well) while playing through an original Dungeons and Dragons® adventure her sister wrote. She Kills Monsters is a comedic romp into the world of fantasy role-playing games! In this high-octane dramatic comedy laden with homicidal fairies, nasty ogres, and 90’s pop culture, acclaimed playwright Qui Nguyen offers a heart-pounding homage to the geek and warrior within us all. Rate: This is a non-union, non-paid theater production. Additional info: Callbacks (by invitation only) Monday, May 12, 7:00 to 10:00 pm Performance dates are Friday, July 1,8 through Saturday, August 9, 2025. Performance times are Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 pm, and Sundays at 2:00 pm. Saturday matinees at 2:00 pm will be added on July 26 and continue through the rest of the run.

If you are interested, please apply.

As Kaliope, in the Dungeons & Dragons game, she is a strong and athletic dark elf. As Kelly, in the real world, she has a mobility impairment and uses arm crutches or a wheelchair. So the game for her is a means of experiencing a life where she can move and fight without restriction. Performers with mobility impairments are encouraged to audition.
Nerdiness personified. In the real world, he is your stereotypical high school student struggling with class and social situations. In Dungeons & Dragons he plays “Steve the Adventurer” who… tries hard.
Looking for 3-4 fight ensemble members to play various monsters in the combat sequences and assist backstage with costume and set changes.
