Presented by All Queer Shakespeare & Ronin Theatre Company
Arizona Premiere
In post-apocalyptic "Lost Vegas," a young gunslinger named Jess December enlists the help of a mysterious cowboy to help avenge the murder of her sister. However, the gang they'll be going against have powers that go way beyond just gunpowder and steel. To get revenge, they may have to become just as bloodthirsty as the monsters they're facing.
Get ready for a high-octane, post-apocalyptic Wild Western, Fight show, like nothing you’ve seen on stage before. Written by acclaimed playwright Qui Nguyen (She Kills Monsters, Raya and the Last Dragon), Six Rounds of Vengeance is packed with sword fights, grit, queer heroes, and grindhouse style.
Set in the ruins of “Lost Vegas,” this action packed thrill ride follows Jess, a one-armed lesbian gunslinger on a mission to avenge her sister’s death. Alongside a masked vigilante and a bard with a blade, she battles supernatural enemies, brutal warlords, and her own past to find her hero’s journey!
Directed by Ric Alpers, with jaw-dropping fight choreography from Pantheon: A Team of Fight Directors, this Arizona premiere features a majority POC, LGBTQ+ cast that brings raw power and heart to the stage.
