La Jolla Playhouse presents: The Monsters

June 9 @ 7:00 pm - June 28 @ 5:00 pm

For years, LIL has observed her estranged brother from the shadows, studying every punch he throws. BIG, an aging but respected force in the local mixed martial arts circuit, remains unaware his little sister has been tracking his career from afar… until she appears unexpectedly on his doorstep.

Award-winning playwright Ngozi Anyanwu writes and stars alongside Sullivan Jones (HBO’s The Gilded Age) in this West Coast premiere of a warm-hearted and action-charged story that explores how we can love each other better, and the fight to build a life you can be proud of.

Raw and riveting, The Monsters is a love letter to sibling relationships that delivers an emotional knockout
