“She Kills Monsters”
“She Kills Monsters” by Qui Nguyen tells the story of Agnes Evans as she leaves her childhood home following the death of her teenage sister, Tilly. When Agnes finds Tilly’s Dungeons & Dragons notebook, she stumbles into a journey of discovery and action-packed adventure in the imaginary world that was Tilly’s refuge. In this high-octane dramatic comedy laden with fairies, nasty ogres, and ‘90s pop culture, acclaimed playwright and storyteller Nguyen offers a heart-pounding homage to the geek and warrior within us all.
Adapted and directed by Steven Volpe, the award-winning high school theatre students of Arcadia Stage will present this delightful production, on Nov. 14, 15 and 16, 2019.
WinterFest

“Newsies – The Broadway Musical”
Arcadia Stage’s spring musical has become a community tradition, and this year they present “Newsies” (March 19, 20, 21, 2020) directed by Steven Volpe.
Jack Kelly is a rebellious newsboy who dreams of a life as an artist away from the big city. After publishing giant Joseph Pulitzer raises newspaper prices at the newsboys’ expense, Kelly and his fellow newsies take action. With help from the beautiful female reporter Katherine Plumber, all of New York City soon recognizes the power of “the little man.”
“Dark of the Moon”
“Dark of the Moon” by Howard Richardson tells the story of a “witch boy” who tarries in a mountain town and seeks to become human after falling in love with a beautiful human girl named Barbara Allen.
