THE ICE-BREAKER

Sonia, an ambitious, brilliant Ph.D. candidate seeks out Lawrence, the disgraced, reclusive climate scientist whose work inspired her. On a desert night, mysteries of science, wine and the relentlessly inquisitive human heart are exposed, connecting the two damaged souls for the rest of their lives.

THE ICE-BREAKER

  • Art Manke: THE ICE-BREAKER

    "The Ice-Breaker" is a prescient look at climate science that is, at the same time, a deeply moving exploration of a surprisingly original, May-December relationship.

  • Aleks Merilo: THE ICE-BREAKER

    I've admired David Rambo since seeing "God's Man in Texas", and this follow up did not disappoint me. I had the fortune of seeing "Ice-Breaker" several years ago at Theatre 40, and have been thinking about it a lot in 2018. Rambo dances the tightrope between high-minded science and gentle humanity beautifully, and I expect to see this now-even-more-timely play on stage again soon.
