At Williamson Medical Center, our story is best told by our patients.

They have been here. They know us well.

To Elizabeth Tyer, Williamson Medical Center is where she got her life back. She never expected to have a “widow maker” heart attack in her early 40s, but when she called EMS after sickness that worsened by the hour, our paramedics were able to communicate the status of Elizabeth’s condition so that when they arrived, doctors and nurses were standing by and ready to go.

She had a stent inserted into her aortic artery within the hour and credits the fast response time and knowledgeable cardiologists at WMC with the reason she is here to tell her story today.

We want to hear your story.

Eliminate the box.’ And then you will learn to be comfortable in the uncomfortable and you will find your authentic voice.” - Eddie George

The nonprofit Tennessee Performing Arts Center (TPAC) announced in December that NFL legend, former Tennessee Titan, actor, and entrepreneur Eddie George will serve as an advocate for TPAC Education. Millions know George as a record-setting superstar who distinguished himself at The Ohio State University, where he won the Heisman Trophy, for the Tennessee Titans, and within the National Football League. Nashville audiences also know his work as an actor including Amun Ra Theatre’s God’s Trombones, the title roles in Julius Caesar and Othello for Nashville Shakespeare Theatre, and Nashville Repertory Theatre’s The Whipping Man. He recently completed a seven-week run as “Billy Flynn” in the Broadway musical Chicago. George received TPAC’s highest honor, The Applause Award, in 2014 for his distinguished contributions to the arts and the community. The following summer, he joined the TPAC Board of Directors. In this Q&A, George talks about his commitment to increasing awareness of the need for arts education and its positive impact on educational achievement and well-being. page 18 » Support TPAC’s nonproﬁt mission online at TPAC.ORG/Donate. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Q: Why are you tackling this new role for TPAC Education? Eddie George: I saw this as a great opportunity to share my story. The arts have been a huge part of my life. I grew up going to plays with my mother. She put me in ballet lessons. I was very reluctant in doing so, but I took ballet again in college to help with my athleticism on the field. And now after playing the game, I’ve found a new career and peace in doing theatre. I really want to inspire children to delve into the arts because there is so much to explore about yourself, what you can become, what you can do, and how you can express your artistic talents. Q: What messages do you want to relay to parents and children, along with educators and arts supporters? EG: The arts are about aligning yourself with what you want to do and your passions. They are about not being afraid and fighting through the fear or doubt over what people may say. For me, going into theatre was a no brainer. It was a great challenge, and I’ve enjoyed really getting to know who I am. It was a spiritual journey for me, and it still is. To be able to tell the truth in imaginary settings through various writings and different characters resonated with me. I think kids should be able to explore that, and to not be afraid of it. We often see that kids shy away from theatre or public speaking. I want young people to see all things are possible. I was inspired by the story of Paul Robeson and how he was able to transform his life from an athlete, learning how to read and write at a late age, to become a great orator, an opera singer, and a civil rights activist. It wasn’t one thing that he was. I’m not that either. I’m not going to pin myself down as an actor or as a football player or Eddie George with students visiting TPAC from Forks River Elementary in Smith County, photo by Mimosa Arts as an entrepreneur. I can do all things. I bring that same amount of integrity, passion, and focus into everything that I do, whether it’s reading a book to children, or reading a play, or giving a presentation to potential clients for my business. So, I would say to kids, ‘Don’t think outside the box. Eliminate the box.’ Then, they will learn to be comfortable in the uncomfortable and they will find their authentic voice. Q: How do you hope to inspire children through the arts? EG: Hopefully, I can inspire them to pursue their dreams. Every time I get on the stage I come alive. It’s a funny thing. Hopefully, I can inspire kids to become whatever they want to be. The great thing about being an actor is that you have a chance to experience almost every occupation, whether it’s a lawyer, a general, a servant, or a president. Whatever that may be, you have a chance to experience that on stage, and that may inspire you to become our next president, or an athlete. That’s the beauty of being an actor. You can be anything you want to be. Students visiting TPAC from Dudley Head Start in Nashville, photo by Mimosa Arts

“Eddie is an extraordinary role model, a unique individual who’s at the top of his game in whatever he does as an athlete, an actor, an entrepreneur, or humanitarian. We couldn’t be more thrilled about his deep interest in how TPAC Education engages and inspires young people. Talented in his own right and a born mentor, Eddie is an excellent messenger for how someone can expand and enrich their life through participation with the arts.” - Kathleen O’Brien, President and Chief Executive Officer, Tennessee Performing Arts Center

PROLOGUE It is 1911 and the contents of the Paris Opera House are being auctioned off. Present are the auctioneer, porters, and bidders. Raoul, now 70 years old, buys a poster and music box. As the auctioneer displays the Opera House chandelier, he explains that it is connected with the legend of the Phantom of the Opera. With a flash of light, the audience is flung back in time, when the Paris Opera was at its height. ACT I We are thrust into the middle of a rehearsal for the opera Hannibal. Monsieur Lefèvre, the retiring manager of the Opera, is showing the new managers, Monsieurs Firmin and André, the great stage. As the prima donna, Carlotta, is singing, a sandbag falls to the floor, nearly killing her. The cry is raised, “It’s The Phantom of the Opera!” Upset, Carlotta refuses to sing. Meg Giry, daughter of the ballet mistress, Madame Giry, suggests that her friend, Christine Daaé, take Carlotta’s place. Christine has been taking lessons from a mysterious new teacher. At Christine’s triumph in the opera is Raoul, a nobleman and patron of the Opera. Raoul recognizes Christine as a childhood friend. He comes backstage after the performance to escort her to dinner, but Christine tells him she cannot go, because her teacher, “The Angel of Music,” is very strict. When Raoul leaves Christine’s room, the Phantom appears. Christine is lured into the bowels of the Opera House, where the Phantom will continue her lessons. The Phantom leads her to his underground lair, where he asks her to sing the music he has composed. Overwhelmed, Christine faints, only to be awakened several hours later by the Phantom’s music on the organ. Unobserved, he takes off his mask and continues to work. Christine creeps up behind him and turns him to see his face. Horrified, the Phantom takes Christine back to the surface. The Phantom has sent notes to both the Managers of the Opera, as well as Raoul, Madame Giry, and Carlotta, which give instructions that Christine will have the lead in the new opera, Il Muto. The Managers refuse to give in to the Phantom’s demands. Il Muto proceeds as planned, with Carlotta in the lead and Christine in a secondary role. As promised, disaster strikes – the stagehand Joseph Buquet is killed and Carlotta’s voice is compromised. In the confusion, Raoul and Christine escape to the roof of the Opera House. There, with all of Paris around them, they pledge their love to one another. They cannot see the Phantom overhearing their vows of love. Enraged at Christine’s betrayal, the Phantom causes the final disaster of the night: the mighty chandelier comes crashing down.

ACT II The second act opens at a grand masquerade ball, held in the Ballroom of the Paris Opera. No one has heard from the Phantom in 12 months. Christine and Raoul are engaged but are keeping it a secret; Christine keeps her engagement ring on a chain around her neck. Suddenly, the Phantom appears, and delivers to the Managers a score from his opera, Don Juan Triumphant. At first, the Managers refuse to perform the strange, disturbing opera. Then, with the help of Raoul, they devise a plan to trap the Phantom, using Christine as bait. Plans for Don Juan Triumphant, and the trap, are made. Christine visits the grave of her father. There at the grave stands the Phantom, beckoning her to join him. Raoul appears and takes her away. At last, the opening night of Don Juan Triumphant arrives. The theater is surrounded by guards and police eager to catch the Phantom. As the opera comes to its end, the Phantom takes the place of Piangi, the lead singer. He confronts Christine on stage during the performance, and escapes with her once more to his labyrinth below the Opera House. In a last confrontation, the Phantom gives Christine a choice: Stay with him forever, or he will kill Raoul. Her decision brings to an end the story of The Phantom of the Opera.
