This project intended to explore how an interactive theatre-based learning strategy affects participants’ awareness and understanding of conflict in the workplace. We developed a qualitative study that recognized the multicultural context that participants were immersed in, focusing on concepts like power and equality. This study was concerned with the potential shifts in participants’ abilities and thoughts on conflict in the workplace after participating in several sessions of Conflict Theatre. We were also interested in understanding the participants’ resilience capacity around conflict and difficult conversations in the workplace.
