Second Afterlife

Mt Roskill Grammar School (by arrangement with Playmarket NZ) presents our Level 3 Drama Production for 2022... 'Second Afterlife'.

Dan has done it all – Instagram, Tumblr, World of Warcraft and that unfortunate fake profile on Tinder... Dozens of profiles, used and deleted. Now he’s ready to reinvent himself - it’s time for a new profile. But, in order to forge a new identity, Dan has to face up to his internet history: the Tumblr emo, Warcraft gamer, and his inner Tinder seductress. They’re cooler, savvier, shot from more flattering angles, and they’re not going down without a fight. Second Afterlife is a dark comedy about life (and death) in the digital age.

Inspired by Dante’s Inferno, and in the tradition of Scott Pilgrim vs the World, it is a twisted allegory for the internet generation – a poetic, butt-kicking adventure to the darkest corners of web. Be there and BEWARE THE VINES!
