Juliet: A Revenge Comedy is going to NEW YORK CITY!!!!

Help Monster Theatre take Juliet: A Revenge Comedy to New York!

It’s our 25th Anniversary and we need your help to take our biggest leap yet!

Monster Theatre has been invited to the SoHo Playhouse, in New York City to perform our hit play, Juliet: A Revenge Comedy off-Broadway in February 2025. 

It’s our biggest opportunity ever. But we can’t do it without your help.

DONATE NOW

The cost of taking a show to New York City is astronomical. Even with accommodation assistance from Soho Playhouse, we need funds to cover our airfare and daily expenses for 12 days in New York City for our team of 3 actors. Not to mention getting the costumes and props there and a gazillion other things.

This opportunity is so important to us, and anything you can give will help us reach our goal. Even if we don’t reach our full goal, every dollar will still help us take this next big leap forward in Monster history.

We can’t do it without your help. We tried.

We Monsters tend to stay in the shadows. That’s why in 25 years, we’ve almost never asked for financial help. We pride ourselves on living off our box office, and it’s a great achievement. But making that next big move doesn’t happen without the support of our community.

If you don’t have $$ you can still help!

We understand if you aren’t able to contribute financially, and we would still appreciate your help. Use the Indiegogo share tools to spread the word about our campaign. Talk us up to your friends. If someone isn’t on social media, send them an email. Every little bit helps.

Thank you!

ERIKA THE RED

An Epic One-Woman Viking Saga

Created by Tara Travis and Ryan Gladstone

Here is a mini rockumentary that we made, it’s a spin-off from the actual inspiration for the show: the Birka Grave and Warrior. Since being discovered in the 1890’s, it has stood as the prime example of a Viking Warrior Grave, but when scientists in 2018 proved that the occupant was a female, experts were thrown for a loop!

Next touring dates are January 2025 at the FESTN4 in Orlando Florida!

JULIET: A REVENGE COMEDY

“Monster Theatre is money in the bank. Don’t miss out on this sure to sell-out gem!” ★★★★★                 -CBC

“Juliet: A Revenge Comedy is an example of the new heights that can be achieved when we
rethink tropes as old as time.” ★★★★★ – Winnipeg Free Press

What if Juliet doesn’t kill herself?

Stuck in an endless loop of turning a dagger on herself, Juliet (played by Lili Beaudoin) tears herself from the fabric of her tragedy in search of a reason for her untimely demise. Juliet recruits a team of the Bard’s most famous female characters (all played by Jessie Award-winner Carly Pokoradi). Together, they embark on an uproarious adventure through the canon, pursued by Shakespeare himself (played by Ryan Gladstone).

Can they alter their fate, or are they doomed to play out the same tragic tales for eternity?

Starring Lili Beaudoin as Juliet

Ryan Gladstone as Shakespeare

and Carly Pokoradi as EVERYONE ELSE!

Costume Design by Nita Bowerman, Original Score by Drew Jurecka, Lighting Design by Jude Weismiller, Set Design by Alexandra Caprara, Stage Management by Jon Paterson
