​Words of Wisdom from Playwright Lee Blessing 
(A Walk in the Woods, nominated for a Tony Award and the Pulitzer Prize): 
People are conditioned more and more to look at any entertainment for its
surface values, not at the potential to make people question their values. 
We're far less content-driven than we used to be.  We need to use forms of
​entertainment, particularly theater, as a means to look at ourselves.
