BACKGROUND:

UNT Theatre continues its 2020-2021 season with a production of The Goose: A Play Most Foul, a work about mental illness, friendship and trust.

The Goose is an original play written by Kurt Kelley and directed by Bennett Frohock, who are both UNT students. It follows a man named Ricky who is experiencing a serious mental health crisis.

“Believe your friends before you doubt them, for doubt leads to distrust and distrust leads to dysfunction,” said Frohock in his notes on the play. “Mental illness needs to be destigmatized so people like Ricky will get the help they need before it is too late. Pay attention to how society has shaped Rick’s opinion on mental health treatment.”
