Heard of unconscious bias, but unsure what it really means, or the impact it has? In this session, tailored for the cast and company of shows, we build a collective understanding and awareness of how unconscious bias works, how it can negatively impact the working environment of shows and our interactions with others. Participants will then learn strategies to help reduce this and promote a positive working culture.

“The training was excellent, incredibly useful and informative.”
Our Unconscious Bias – for Casts and Companies training is aimed at those who are new to the topic or who are keen to refresh/increase theirknowledge, and is tailored specifically to the cast and company of shows. The training provides participants with a clear understanding of what unconscious bias is, the impact it can have on how we make choices and interact with one another, and the role it can play in negatively impacting the overall working environment on a show.
Participants will explore how unconscious bias can begin to be addressed, including tools and actionable ‘takeaways’ so they can start taking steps to drive positive change immediately.
Tonic has delivered Unconscious Bias training to companies of a wide range of long-running shows in the West End and on tour including Mamma Mia!, Peaky Blinders: The Rise, SIX The Musical, TINA the Tina Turner Musical.
