SUICIDAL LIFE COACH: A Serious Comedy, Premieres At The Hudson Guild Theatre Next Week
Personal Safety, Inc. (PSI) is proud to continue the conversation aimed to destigmatize mental health issues such as depression and suicidal ideation though over-the-top humor of Suicidal Life Coach by R. K. Rich.
It's life coach Fred Sigman's wedding day. His fiancée is histrionic, mercurial, and already planning their annulment! No wonder he's depressed! Believing that laughter is, indeed, the best medicine, this play employs over-the-top humor to address the serious realities of depression while offering strategies to help loosen the grips of despair, hopelessness, and helplessness.
Mr. Rich recently shared, "everyone has always said, 'write about what you know," so I did. While it seems to be under control now or for now, I've battled depression for several years. The more I was willing to share my struggles, the more I found others who were suffering in silence and in shame. I felt compelled to be a part of the solution or at least to try to be! That is what underlies this play. I've created a world that allows me to share the best parts of my life coaching practice and my quirky sense of humor. I know that laughter has been the only thing that saved me from the deepest levels of darkness."
Suicidal Life Coach premieres Off-Off-Broadway as part of the New York Theater Festival - Summerfest on August 27th at 9 pm, with additional shows on August 29th at 9 pm and September 1st at 6 pm at the Hudson Guild Theatre, 441 W. 26th Street, New York, NY.
