think of the impact of all of the aspects that
deal with creating a play and giving a great
performance. For my first live play I went to go

today is filled with great heroes. Unfortunately,
our culture has a tendency to confuse hero worship
with the character of a true hero. How then, is a
hero defined? Is it someone who is brave, honest
and who s attributes are beneficial to society? Or
is it someone rich, famous or physically strong?
Does being able to score the winning basket make
you a hero, or how about hitting a grand slam when
your team is down by 3 in the bottom of the ninth?
