She Kills Monsters
She Kills Monsters: Young Adventurers Edition
By Qui Nguyen
High schooler Agnes Evans never expected that discovering her late sister Tilly’s Dungeons & Dragons notebook would launch her into a fantastical world filled with homicidal fairies, nasty ogres, and sword-swinging adventure — but that’s exactly what happens in this high-octane dramatic comedy.
As Agnes battles her way through the imaginary realm her sister once called home, she uncovers more than monsters — she finds courage, connection, and the chance to finally understand the sister she thought she lost. With fast-paced action, surprising heart, and plenty of '90s pop culture, She Kills Monsters is a love letter to the geeks, the warriors, and the storytellers we leave behind.
As part of our Legacies season, this play asks what it means to honor someone’s memory — and how the stories we tell can keep those we love alive.

The Secret Garden
This enchanting classic of children's literature is reimagined in brilliant musical style by composer Lucy Simon and Marsha Norman, the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of 'Night Mother. Orphaned in India, 11-year-old Mary Lennox returns to Yorkshire to live with her embittered, reclusive uncle Archibald and his disabled son Colin. The estate's many wonders include a magic garden which beckons the children with haunting melodies and the "Dreamers," spirits from Mary's past who guide her through her new life, dramatizing The Secret Garden's compelling tale of forgiveness and renewal.
