404: Break the Fourth Wall: Lessons from the Olympics, Kamala, and Shakespeare

404: Break the Fourth Wall: Lessons from the Olympics, Kamala, and Shakespeare

This is going to be a fun episode and hopefully get you thinking differently about the presentations and talks you give, whether you’re speaking to audiences of 20, 50, 100, 500, or more.

What does it mean to "break the fourth wall" and should you do that as a speaker?

The fourth wall is the imaginary wall at the front of the stage that separates the fictional world (the performance) from real life (the audience).

When you attend a play or a movie, you're an outsider watching the characters live their lives; they don't know you exist.

However, I've noticed more and more that live performances and even movies are breaking the fourth wall.

What does this have to do with you as a speaker?

That’s what we’re going to talk about, including specific things you can do to break the fourth wall with your audience to be a more impactful and memorable speaker.
