The featured guests for the 13th annual Goshen College all-school Martin Luther King Jr. Study Day is Breaking Ice. They will offer a stimulating and entertaining performance program that gets to the heart of difficult issues. Each performance is created for the specific circumstances of its presentation, an original theater piece using poetry, music, movement and structured improvisation to bring tough issues to life. The facilitated discussion that follows provides the forum for participants to explore the issue together. Breaking Ice is a program of Pillsbury House Theatre and a strategy of Pillsbury United Communities.
