It’s a show with tools you can use in your next family dinner table debate! “De-escalation” is a way of approaching a potential conflict in a way that tries to lower the temperature instead of heightening it. Russ Turner, one of the state’s leading trainers in this methodology, will join us and talk us through how “de-escalation” works and how we can use it in our lives!

What is the show?

Described “As if C-SPAN were suddenly swarmed by the cast of SNL,” The Theater of Public Policy has garnered national media attention and fans for its unique blend of serious issues and improv comedy.

• Shows open with a lively conversation with a newsmaker or policy wonk.

• That conversation inspires a team of Minnesota’s most sharpest improvisers, who create entirely spontaneous sketches based on the interview.

• The expert guest(s) then answers questions from the audience.

• The show wraps with one last round of improv from the cast.
