She Kills Monsters

Written by Qui Nguyen
A comedic romp into the world of fantasy role-playing games, She Kills Monsters tells the story of Agnes Evans as she leaves her childhood home in Ohio following the death of her teenage sister, Tilly. When Agnes finds Tilly’s Dungeons & Dragons notebook, however, she stumbles into a journey of discovery and action-packed adventure in the imaginary world that was Tilly’s refuge. “A heart-pounding, hilarious, emotional ride celebrating the warrior (and the nerd) within us all.” – DC Metro Theater Arts

MEET & GREET: An Evening of One Acts

Cob Theatre

Charlotte’s Off-Broadway Presents
MEET & GREET: An Evening of One Acts
September 4–21, 2025 | COB Black Box Theater at the VAPA Center

Charlotte’s Off-Broadway kicks off the fall season with a trio of sharp, satirical one-act plays that dive into the chaos of auditions, identity, and ambition.

Featuring works by Stan Zimmerman & Christian McLaughlin, Susan Lambert Hatem, and Don Zolidis, MEET & GREET is a riotous behind-the-scenes look at casting calls and callbacks.

The Lineup:

  • Hamilton Audition by Susan Lambert Hatem – A biting two-hander exploring race and representation in theater.
  • The Job Interview by Don Zolidis – A dark comedy about retail desperation and fragile egos.
  • Meet & Greet by Zimmerman & McLaughlin – Four aging actresses clash at a sitcom audition in this laugh-out-loud backstage brawl.

Tickets: $30

Special Events:

  • September 4 at 5:00 PM – Pop-up book signing with Stan Zimmerman
  • September 4 at 7:30 PM – Opening Night
  • September 4 at 9:30 PM – Talk-back with Zimmerman & Hatem
  • September 5 – BOGO Night (Promo Code: COBBOGO)
  • September 10 – Pay What You Can Night (Door sales only)

Stan Zimmerman’s memoir, The Girls: From Golden to Gilmore, celebrates 40 years of The Golden Girls and 25 years of Gilmore Girls. Copies available at the signing.

Saturday, June 11, 2022 – THE INHERITANCE by Matthew Lopez, produced by Dan Grogan; doors open at 6pm, reading at 7pm

Matthew Lopez’ epic play, The Inheritance reimagines E.M. Forster’s Howard’s End as a contemporary portrait of New York’s gay community. A generation after the height of the AIDS crisis, the play explores what it is like to be a young gay man in New York. What does the current generation owe to its forebears? At the center of the play stands Eric Glass, around whom characters swirl in and out of love, apartments, and arguments. The Inheritance addresses serious questions about sexual identity as well as asking what the gay community has lost, and also gained, in the last twenty years.
