This program, featuring Abbot and Costello, is the only comedy routine in the Baseball Hall of Fame. A “normal conversation” between Abbott and Costello about the starting lineup of the St.Louis Wolves baseball team becomes a classic case of reciprocal misunderstanding and demonstrates some of the inherent problems in effective communication.
Fostering the conditions necessary for meaningful learning in the area of interpersonal communication is by no means easy. Most participants in communication workshops feel they are good communicators
The unique benefit of using WHO”S ON FIRST as your session starter is the opportunity it provides for the audience to enjoy such loveable characters as Abbott and Costello, and yet, at the same time, deal with the potentially tough and threatening issue of their own competence as communicators. By identifying with the experiences of the characters they see on the screen, people will open themselves up to deeper, more meaningful, learning in the time available in the workshop, And, we bet they’ll have fun doing it!
