thanks for posting. yes, it seems the system did work for r.s.
brian copeland's one-man-show, "the waiting period," at the marsh theater in s.f. is wonderful. he tells the story of how he had to wait for the gun he would use to kill himself. during the waiting period, his friends and family helped him change his mind and live. he plays all the roles. the show is not depressing at all. it's uplifting and even funny. we saw it a few years ago. since then the marsh has re-mounted the show several times for runs of a few weeks, so you may have a chance to see it in the future.
after each performance, he offers his hope that seeing the show might inspire others to wait and hopefully change their minds, and he gives examples.
