They would have to be notified by someone close or a friend at school who they have spoken about committing suicide.

Theater Response Paper: Actors The play that I went to see at 59E59 Theaters was called Gidion’s Knot by Johnna Adams. The play depicted a parent/teacher conference between a mother and her son’s teacher. The mother, Corryn, still wanted an explanation as to why her son, Gidion, was suspended from his fifth grade class even though he committed suicide a few days prior to the conference.

The play was heart-wrenching yet enjoyable because of the hard work done by the actors and detailed technical aspects.
