| How do you say goodbye to a loved one you wished you knew better? If you are lucky enough to find their Dungeons and Dragons adventure book, then the answer is that you go on a quest. That is the plot of "She Kills Monsters" which will be featured in a five-show run at the Barrow-Civic Little Theatre this week. Set in 1995, "She Kills Monsters" tells the story of Agnes Evans (played by Madison Zimmer), an average woman who embarks on a journey to better understand her sister, Tilly (played by Aster Boswell), who died in a crash along with their parents. When Agnes finds Tilly’s D&D notebook with a module Tilly had written, however, she finds herself catapulted into a journey of discovery and action-packed adventure in the imaginary world that was her sister’s refuge. Through the imaginary game world, Agnes meets Chuck and Great Mage Steve (both played by Andrew Ritsig), Lilth (played by Kachina Earhart), Kaliope (played by Alyssa Carpinello) and Orcus (played by Tristian Cornmesser). It is a humorous and sometimes emotional journey through the topics of regret, grief, acceptance, inclusion and forgiveness. And there is a kickass fight scene that may just bring a few tears to your eyes. Also included in the cast are Glenn Jones as Miles, Libby Best as Vera, Chelsea Armstrong as Evil Gabbi, Carly Over as Evil Tina and Farrah and Dawn Polito as the Narrator. The show opens at 7:30 p.m. Thursday. Additional shows will be done at 7:30 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, as well as 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Tickets are $20 and can be purchased online, by calling the box office at 814-437-3440 or at the door if tickets remain. The show is rated MA due to adult language. |      |
