The Ritz Theatre Company presents "She Kills Monsters"

originally published: 02/10/2026

(HADDON TOWNSHIP, NJ) -- The Ritz Theatre Company presents She Kills Monsters from March 6-29, 2026. A comedic romp into the world of fantasy role-playing games! 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.

She Kills Monsters follows Agnes Evans, a young woman reeling from the unexpected death of her teenage sister, Tilly. While cleaning out Tilly’s room, Agnes discovers a Dungeons & Dragons campaign notebook written by her sister.

In an attempt to connect with the sister she never truly knew, Agnes enlists the help of a local dungeon master to play through the adventure. As Agnes dives into the world of D&D, she meets Tilly’s alter ego—a fierce warrior known as Tillius the Paladin—and embarks on a fantastical journey filled with demons, dragons, and dark elves.

Along the way, Agnes discovers that Tilly’s campaign is more than just a game; it’s a personal narrative filled with coded truths about Tilly’s struggles, friendships, and queerness.

Performances take place Friday, March 6 at 8:00pm; Saturday, March 7 at 8:00pm; Sunday, March 8 at 2:00pm; Friday, March 13 at 8:00pm; Saturday, March 14 at 3:00pm & 8:00pm; Sunday, March 15 at 2:00pm; Wednesday, March 18 at 7:30pm; Friday, March 20 at 8:00pm; Saturday, March 21 at 8:00pm; Sunday, March 22 at 2:00pm; Wednesday, March 25 at 7:30pm; Friday, March 27 at 8:00pm; Saturday, March 28 at 8:00pm; and Sunday, March 29 at 2:00pm. Tickets are available for purchase online.
