Can a scripted performance shift the way people feel—and act—about race, identity, and inclusion in their workplace?
This is Chapter Two of our three-part journey into the world of Breaking Ice, a theater-based DEI program pushing against the mounting tide of resistance and rollback. Building on the emotional groundwork laid in Part 1, we now go deeper into what happens after the curtain rises—when the performance ends and the real conversations begin.
- Step inside the post-performance debrief: a high-stakes dialogue where vulnerability, pushback, and transformation collide.
- Learn how Breaking Ice uses improvisation, humor, and empathy to defuse defensiveness and invite deeper understanding.
- Hear powerful reflections from both cast and audience members as they confront their own assumptions—and open up to change.
If Part 1 opened your eyes, Part 2 will challenge your heart. Have a listen as Breaking Ice takes DEI off the page and into real lives, one courageous conversation at a time.
