Please send headshots and resumes to shekillsmonsterstoronto@gmail.com and, if chosen, you will be emailed back with an audition time and location.  About the Show: She Kills Monsters by Qui Nugyen is a darkly comedic fantasy. The story takes place in 1995, and centres around Agnes Evans who, at the beginning of the play, loses her teen sister Tilly to a fatal car crash. Through the process of cleaning out her room, Agnes discovers a handmade Dungeons and Dragons module written by Tilly before she died. In order to learn more about the sister she will never truly get to know in life, Agnes jumps head first into Tilly's D&D fantasy. Throughout her adventure Agnes encounters elfs, demon overlords, succubus cheerleaders, and dragons. She Kills Monsters deals with life, loss, kicking ass and awesome 90's pop culture references. This production will be directed by Zac McKendrick. Though many characters are high school aged, our preference is that actors are 18+.  Character Breakdown: AGNES-Lead-(25) Protagonist. She is average in every aspect of the word, but has a huge potential for adventure.  TILLY-Lead-(15) Totally bad ass, but in a nerdy teen boy kind of way. She is brave and smart, but not above being a teenager. LILITH-Supporting-(17) Demon Princess. She is an evil smoke show. Tough as nails, but has a huge heart for the people she loves.  KALIOPE- Supporting-(20) Elf. She is incredibly intelligent. Would be known as the brains of the group. VERA- Supporting-(25) Highschool Guidance Councillor. She is Agnes's coworker with an attitude. She would be better suited to working at a dive bar than with children. At the end of the day she has Agnes's best interest at heart. MILES-Supporting-(25) Agnes's boyfriend. They have been dating for 5 years and he has yet to propose. Miles is very vanilla. It is his lack of awareness is truly his downfall. ORACUS- Supporting-(20) Ruler of the Underworld. The once great and feared Oracus has decided to go into early retirement.
