After doing a review of literature on firearms in live theatrical performances, I discovered that  safety was addressed as prevention against physical dangers. As a result, I noticed a substantial lack of accessible conversations and resources regarding the psychological risks that correlate with the presence of a gun in a theatrical production, specifically concerning feelings of discomfort and fear.

This could be due to the practices of the industry itself. There are many aspects of fight choreography that you cannot learn from books, but must learn in person through practice. I would argue that this very nature contributed to the lack of  readily accessible information and as a result, led to a lack of written resources. This is why I personally make the assumption that there is information and knowledge being taught about mental health and guns that online resources do not feature. However, this is exactly the problem, because it is crucial to have accessible information for independent research and inquiry.
