Announcing the first show of our 2025/2026 season
All Queer Shakespeare & Ronin Theatre Company proudly present a knockout co-production of Six Rounds of Vengeance by Qui Nguyen — featuring the powerhouse fight choreography and actors from Pantheon Movement Arts!
Six Rounds of Vengeance is a queer, campy, post-apocalyptic thrill ride from the mind behind She Kills Monsters. Overflowing with heart, humor, and jaw-dropping combat, this grindhouse-style action play explores justice, grief, and chosen family — with punches, kicks, and killer one-liners flying fast and furious.
"Overflowing with awesome stage combat and imaginative writing, this show packs a huge theatrical punch in just under 90 minutes." — TheatreMania

About: In post-apocalyptic "Lost Vegas," a young gunslinger named Jess December enlists the help of a mysterious samurai cowboy to help avenge the murder of her sister. However, the gang they'll be going against has 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.
