2018 | 2019 CFCC STORIES CAMPUS SPOTLIGHT SHE KILLS MONSTERS Thumbs up to CFCC’s Department of Humanities & Fine Arts as all six shows sell out for Qui Nguyen’s She Kills Monsters November, 2019
Overcoming grief: can homicidal fairies, nasty ogres, and supermodel elves help with the grieving process? A comedic romp into the world of fantasy role-playing games, “She Kills Monsters” tells the story of high school teacher Agnes Evans as she deals with the death of her younger sister, Tilly. When Agnes stumbles upon Tilly’s Dungeons & Dragons notebook, she finds herself catapulted into a journey of discovery and action-packed adventure in the imaginary world that was her sister’s refuge.

CFCC Department of Humanities & Fine Arts received great acclaim as they brought this story to the Wilson Center Studio Theatre in November.
“
She Kills Monsters brings nostalgia and depth to stage and the production values are fabulous. Gaffney utilizes vertical fabric columns for projections to create a forest the D&D party journey through. It is a spectacular choice that gives the performers room to maneuver, and it creates depth... Gaffney has a clear vision and a great eye for detail. It looks like the students are in great hands with her.
