Cast and Production Bios

Vivi Thai producer.jpg

Vivi Thai (Agnes) is excited to be fighting monsters again at the Hollywood Fringe Festival, this time indoors! A Fringe veteran, she previously took you on an adventure as Lil in "Unreal City," the immersive winner of HFF 2018. Onstage, she’s been Desdemona in a post-apocalyptic Othello (Avery-Shreiber), a Goth Girl stuck on an Elevator (Coast Playhouse), and was one of The Two Kids that Blow S**t Up (Aurora Theatre, Atlanta). On "TV," you can see her in outer space in “Personal Space” on Amazon Prime. Thanks for geeking out with us! @like2vs 

Susannah Showden-Ifft (alt-actor).png

Susannah Snowden-Ifft (Tilly) puts "geek" and "theatre" together, which is all you'd really need to describe Susannah. While she has donned such lofty roles as Shakespeare's Lysander and Don John, Lenny Magrath from Crimes of the Heart and Joan Brennan from The Marriage of Bette and Boo, none really compare to Corporal Cat from Alan Priester's War Games, developed by Nomads Theatre Company at Gam3rCon 2013. When you hand a script that you love to a group of fantastic people, you can truly make something great from little or nothing (mostly nothing).

Harry Owen (Chuck) is an actor, writer, and musician born and raised in Los Angeles, CA. He’s been a member of Stuart Rogers’ Studios since 2016. He’s thrilled to be playing the role of Chuck at Fringe.

Zachary Summers (Miles), in a world of confusion here are some facts:

Coffee tastes pretty good.

Milk Duds are not milk at all.

Oranges are named after the color orange, or maybe the color is named after the fruit?

Zach plays Miles...or does Miles play Zach...uh oh...I've gone too deep.

Zach likes acting. See him at lifeofagigolo.com

Reyneen.jpg

Reyneen Pedro (Kaliope/Kelly) is thrilled to be making her Fringe debut with She Kills Monsters. It has always been a dream of hers to be a dark-elf who tracks and slays monsters in the fantasy world of New Landia. She is originally from Honolulu, Hawaii. Yes, she moved away. Yes, she loves it here. And yes, you should go visit. You can find her on small screens, the internet, and even in your next project. @reyneenpedro

Kristin-111_e.jpg

Kristin Walker (Lilith/Lilly) is ecstatic to return to Fringe with such a talented and funny cast. Lately she’s been playing murderers and goth girls, so a flesh-eating demon queen was the only natural progression. She thanks you for your patronage and hopes you enjoy the show! @walkertexaskristin

Shikira Headshot.jpg

Shikira Saul (Vera/Evil Tina/Farrah/The Beholder), is an actor, and also a human, so please, bear with her. She’s been “acting” for far longer than, and is superior to any other person who has ever tried. She likes overindulging in food and wine, and is one stomach flu away from her goal weight. You can catch her on IG: @shikirasaul or in the upcoming feature film About Pie (where she and others...eat pie).

Blair Allison (Narrator/Evil Gabbi), as her grandmother would say, is 'tickled to death' to be doing Fringe for the first time. You may have seen her being brutally murdered on Investigation Discovery once or twice. Blair is the co-founder and president of Moonscar Productions, which is dedicated to creating intersectional feminist content, officially launching later this year. Her comedy web series, "UnRelated " and her pilot "Liz Warren Persists" are both streaming online. On any given Saturday, you can find her drowning in a Bloody Mary and watching Ghost Adventures.

BradMilison.jpg

Brad Milison (Steve) is a comedian, actor, and writer, and is the second greatest person to hail from Cleveland (behind LeBron James, who Brad hopes will attend Fringe since he does not have to worry about Finals this year). He studies at The Groundlings and Stuart Rogers' Studios, and performs improv, stand-up, and sketch comedy across LA. Brad is absolutely thrilled to be a part of She Kills Monsters, and thanks most of you for coming! @bradmilison

JohnYangLi_THS (1) (1) (2).jpg

John Yang Li (Orcus/Ronnie), grew up next to Broadway but ironically had to come all the way to the West coast to find his love for theater. In college, to the dismay of his family, he decided to act. Acting changed his life! Before he was in continuous stages of bliss but now he perpetually questions his decisions and ponders his existence. His other interests include libraries, long walks alone, and playing with his imaginary dog. Maybe some day he’ll go on walks with his real dog. Maybe.

Genny Wilson (alt).png

Genny Wilson (Director), can’t believe she’s making her directorial debut with She Kills Monsters.  Seriously, is this real or is this New Landia? You may have seen her in other fantasy worlds such as "The Young & The Restless," "The Bold & The Beautiful," or even Forgetting Sarah Marshall, but this is the geekiest by far, and she’s so thrilled to have made the journey with this AMAZING cast and crew.  In her other wildest imaginings, she’s thiiiiiiiiiiiis close to getting her Oscar.  @genny.f.wilson
