Yesterday, my uncle and aunt took mom and I to see a play called The Game. It was a mostly non-verbal drama that portrayed the ups and downs of a boxing champion and his team. The story goes that the boxing champion ends up selling out his team and goes to another agency where he is offered more money and luxuries. The team is left with a few mediocre boxers and one really good hidden-talented boxer. The hidden-talented boxer ends up fighting the boxing champion at the World Fighting Championship...and with all my experience and knowledge (I've seen all the Rocky movies thank you very much) I assumed that the winner would be the hidden-talented boxer.
Who do you think won?
Well, the boxing champion was knocked-out and then picked up by the hidden-talented boxer and they both get up together and raise their hands in victory.
So lovely, huh? No blood and guts and everyone wins. A feel-good play that holds many lessons to learn and keep.
