She Kills Monsters
by Qui Nguyendirected by Chelsea Issott
Various Times • Wednesday 14th – Saturday 17th October 2026

She Kills Monsters by Qui Nguyen follows Agnes Evans, a young woman grieving the sudden death of her teenage sister, Tilly.

While sorting through Tilly’s belongings, Agnes discovers a Dungeons & Dragons campaign her sister wrote and decides to play it with the help of Chuck, a quirky dungeon master. As the game unfolds, Agnes is drawn into a vivid fantasy world of monsters, warriors, and demons that mirrors Tilly’s inner life. Through this adventure, Agnes learns who Tilly truly was (brilliant, brave, and queer) and confronts her own regrets, guilt, and unresolved grief.

Blending pop culture, comedy, and heartfelt drama, She Kills Monsters explores storytelling as a way to process loss, celebrate identity, and find connection after tragedy.

Tickets for She Kills Monsters are on sale now from the Leeds Ticket Hub and, before performances, from the Carriageworks Box Office in the Electric Press building on Millennium Square. Please book your tickets online, or by telephoning 0113 376 0318 between 10am and 4pm, Monday to Saturday.

This amateur production of She Kills Monsters is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd on behalf of Samuel French, Inc.

God of Carnage
by Yasmina Reza, translated by Christopher Hamptondirected by Spike Marshall
Wednesday 3rd – Saturday 6th February 2027

This February, we present Yasmina Reza’s God of Carnage: a masterclass in how not to parent. What starts as a civil, “adult” meeting to resolve a playground fracas between two children quickly desolves into a hilarious, high-stakes collision of egos. Beneath the thin veneer of espresso and clafoutis, the gloves aren’t just off... they’ve been shredded.

To keep the Carnage fresh we are performing with two revolving ensembles. With our casts being shuffled throughout the week, you never know exactly who will be throwing the punches. It’s a different kind of disaster every night, come see who survives the chaos.

Tickets for God of Carnage are not currently on sale, but will be available through the Leeds Ticket Hub and the Carriageworks Box Office nearer to the production dates. Keep an eye on this site, or at www.carriageworkstheatre.co.uk for details of availability.
