PITTSBORO — “She Kills Monsters,” a comedy/adventure/mystery play based on the popular game Dungeons and Dragons, will be performed by a Pittsboro Youth Theater cast of experienced middle and high school actors in four performances Nov. 20 and 21.

In the play, the character Agnes stumbles upon her sister Tilly’s Dungeons & Dragons notebook. Tilly has recently died, and Agnes finds herself catapulted into a journey of discovery and action-packed adventure in the imaginary world that was her sister’s refuge. In this high-octane dramatic comedy laden with homicidal fairies, nasty ogres, and ‘90s pop culture, acclaimed playwright Qui Nguyen offers a heart-pounding homage to the geek and warrior within us all.

Performances at the Sweet Bee Theater in the Center for the Arts Pittsboro, 18A East Salisbury St., Pittsboro, are at 4 and 7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 20, and 2 and 6 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 21. Admission is $12. The play includes some strong language and mild adult themes.
