"Right Before I Go." brings to life the last words of those lost to suicide, including the heartsick, bullied, veterans, mentally ill and the achingly lonely. This poignant, deeply moving, and surprisingly light play invokes a raw and authentic approach to storytelling in an effort to help broaden public perspective of suicide, eliminate the stigma associated with depression, and strengthen the relationship between survivors and those struggling every day. Right Before I Go. made its world premiere as part of the Hollywood Fringe Festival in 2015. Tickets  are available at RightBeforeIGo.com.  Right Before I Go. is produced by R. Erin Craig, La Vie Productions, Amy Blavin, The Diane Orley Mental Wellness Institute, Jane Dubin, Ryan Ratelle, Melissa Chusid and One Company.
