Suicide Awareness Play

The suicide awareness play was very well done. It was not a corny play i think they made it as real as they could as to real life. This helped the audience in seeing the signs of suicide and seeing what they may do differently if they saw a peer showing the signs. I liked the forum theatre play because it got you thinking what u may do differently than the way they treated Tristan in the first run through. It got me thinking and sometimes the signs are so sudle and well i really had troubles of what i may do differently its hard when the signs are so sudle. Its hard to see some of the signs, because unlike the audience we cannot see everything and all their relationships, which makes it hard to see that someone is suicidal, you only see yours and their relationship. This was a very well done, real life play that helped me see some of the signs if someone you know may be suicidal and some things that you can do to help. It also changed the stereotypes that some people have of suicidal people which helped show that anyone can be suicidal even if they have everything going for them, you have to be able to detect the signs.
