Why did s/he do it?
A workshop for post primary school teachers, to explore issues surrounding suicide identification, prevention and support.
To aid and encourage discussion around Thomas Kilroy’s new play, Christ Deliver Us!, we have programmed a series of talks and workshops for our audience.
As part of this series we present a Teachers Workshop to explore, through drama, issues surrounding suicide identification, prevention and support.
Why did he/she do it? is a half-day workshop for post primary school teachers, which aims to give participants the skills to raise awareness of mental health issues within the classroom.
The workshop will begin with a chat with writer Thomas Kilroy and director Wayne Jordan. This will be followed by a workshop developed by Smashing Times Theatre Company in partnership with a qualified psychotherapist.
Afterwards, all participants will have a chance to attend the matinee performance of Christ Deliver Us!
