The boy
nobody cared for made everyone sit up and listen.
Few people knew
the boy named Adam Krieger. Fewer knew him enough to care when he committed
suicide. The sad truth is that no one would have given him a second's thought
if he hadn't called them all out, naming names in a suicide note posted on the
Internet. "Adam's Letter" is a story of a young man's final words,
and the impact they have on those left behind. This play is a challenge to
students everywhere to wake up to the hurting around them. Whatever you are
going through, you are not alone... but you'll never find anyone to help unless
you first make yourself available to others.
