Second Grade Problems

About the Show

Second Grade Problems is a one-person storytelling and comedy show written and performed by Cache Dexter. He introduces you to his childhood doll collection, which started as he tried to find solutions to the pressures of second grade. Come meet the dolls, who are filled with thumbtacks and calcium supplements instead of plush, and hear about Cache’s run-ins with gurus, bowling alley saints, and motivational speakers.

This is Leonard.

He's one of the dolls. He says to come to the show.

You're wondering if you should come to my show.

I’m not going to tell you what to do. There’s lots of things you could be doing instead of coming to see my show. For example, here’s a list of acceptable things to do instead of coming to my show:

• Meeting with a foreign ambassador

• Taking dentistry school exams

• Writing an 800-page book about deforestation

• Renting the best tuxedo in town

But if you’re not doing any of these things, you should probably come to my show.
