Playwright Bryan Harnetiaux has written a trilogy of plays that provides a rich opportunity for self-examination and community dialogue on fundamental questions surrounding death and dying. Told with humor and a keen understanding of the human condition the plays are compel- ling dramas about families struggling to deal honestly with the everyday problems and mysteries of mortality. Plays can be used individually or in any combination by hospices churches medical schools community groups and other organizations as an educational tool and as a vehicle for creating dialogue about end-of-life issues. This project is a fantastic thingI just wish more people knew about it. I cant understand why every hospice across the country isnt doing them V. Spear Hospice of the Sacred Heart The plays can be used as either fully-staged productions or dramatic readings. Hospices churches divinity schools medical schools and other organizations can partner with theatres and fine arts departments in their communities to produce the plays. Reading of the plays also makes a great event at a regional or national conference. Audience talk-back sessions after the performance provide additional opportunities for discussing advance care planning hospice and caregiving issues. Included with your license is a complete production packet with an electronic copy of the play suggested discussion questions templates for advertisements and media releases sample programs and flyers and suggestions and ideas from organizations that have successfully pro- duced a play in their community. 100 A single performance one-year license for one play 250 A single performance of each play in the trilogy one-year license 250 A license for one play to be used three times in one year Other licensing combinations are also available contact HFA for details.
