n June 9th, 20 students gathered in the black-box theatre at LaGuardia High School of the Performing Arts in New York, best known as the inspiration for the hit movie and TV series “Fame” in the 1980s. It was the dress rehearsal for an end-of-year showcase of scenes written and performed by 15- and 16-year-olds. The first scene, “It Only Takes One Bite”, was about a school shooting in which a teenage girl survives but her younger brother is killed.
LaGuardia’s legendary drama teacher, Lee Lobenhofer, who has been a mentor to stars such as Timothée Chalamet and Ansel Elgort, agreed with Gold: the Uvalde killings made it even more important to put on the performance. “Art is a mirror of a society,” he told the young actors. The scene ends with Eli waiting under the desk for help to arrive. He eats his sandwich and then takes out an Oreo and holds it up for the audience. Some people, like him, pull the wafers apart and lick the cream off first. The cream doesn’t know that it’s a part of a biscuit, Eli explains, so it doesn’t see what’s coming: “It’s safe.” Others pop the whole thing into their mouths.
