‘She Kills Monsters’ opens at Clackamas Community College Nov. 13

OREGON CITY - Clackamas Community College's Theatre Department will present Qui Nguyen's "She Kills Monsters" as its fall main stage production.

"She Kills Monsters" is a hilarious and heartfelt adventure into the imaginative world of Dungeons & Dragons. When Agnes Evans discovers her late sister Tilly's D&D notebook, she's thrust into a fantastical realm filled with sword fights, dark elves and gelatinous cubes - and begins an epic quest of her own. As Agnes battles both real and metaphorical monsters, she learns about courage, loss and the fierce love between sisters.

Equal parts laugh-out-loud comedy and touching coming-of-age story, "She Kills Monsters" celebrates the power of imagination, identity and the bonds that connect us - even beyond this world.

Directed by Allison Moon, "She Kills Monsters" features a dynamic ensemble of CCC students, with scenic and lighting design by Chris Whitten, prop design by Tegan Richards and costumes by Aiden McFarland.

"She Kills Monsters" runs Nov. 13-23, Thursdays and Fridays at 7:30 p.m., Saturdays and Sundays at 2:30 p.m., and Friday, Nov. 14, at 10 a.m., in the Niemeyer Osterman Theatre, 19600 Molalla Ave., Oregon City. An opening night reception will take place Nov. 13 at 6:30 p.m. in the Niemeyer Center lobby.
