Who doesn't love a wacky comedic mixup? The song "The Man You Think is Awesome" is a classic example of when two characters think they're on the same page but are clearly not!
King Xerxes has decided he wants to honor Mordecai. He needs ideas for how to celebrate this awesome man, so he asks his top advisor Haman for some suggestions. Haman has a big ego, so he thinks that HE is the awesome man the King is referring to. The stage is set for a crazy situation... So how do things play out for Haman? You'll have to listen to find out!
Why do you think Haman believed he was the awesome man King Xerxes was talking about? How do you think Mordecai felt when the King honored him? What do you think will happen next in the story?
We’ll have to wait to find out, but one thing is clear. You’re going to have a blast singing along to this AWESOME song in Esther: A Musical Adventure!
