About this Event
3G Productions proudly announces a limited engagement of The Second Best School Shooting, written by Alice Stanley Jr. and directed by Lauren Johansen. The play opens on May 8, 2026 at Electric Lodge, with performances running through May 17, 2026.
(PLEASE NOTE: The 3pm show on Saturday, May 16th will be an understudy performance).
The Second Best School Shooting is the story of Parker and Ava, two high school friends on the precipice of bright, post-graduation futures, who deal with the aftermath of a traumatic event at their school in polar opposite ways. True to their personalities, Parker turns inward while Ava desperately grasps at the fleeting and fickle world of social media to spread her message of urgent activism.
The Second Best School Shooting explores how young people cope with the confusion, anxiety, and grief of what it means to be a student in America through dark humor, the search for connection, and, of course, TikTok. Truly a story of our time, The Second Best School Shooting will resonate with audiences of all ages.
The production stars Quinn DeVries and Rachael DeBoer. Written by Alice Stanley Jr. Directed by Lauren Johasen. Produced by Gabrielle Geiger, David Scales, and F. Jason Sheppard. Executive produced by Godfrey Flax, Robert & Ann Johansen, and Emily Volman.
