Wavelength

In 1980, Jim Winter, a former high school English teacher, created Wavelength after sitting through one too many boring inservice days. Since then, Wavelength has won acclaim from audiences across the country and around the world, as well as numerous awards for its comedic focus on the serious issues in education.

In addition, Wavelength has been a featured presenter at national conferences for ASCD, AASA, NSDC, NASSP, NAESP, NEA, AFT, NMSA and the IDEA Fellows Program. The group has performed for over one million people in over 1,000 educational organizations worldwide. Wavelength features a diverse cast of actors with varying cultural, ethnic and educational backgrounds in settings that give parity to both genders.

Wavelength has been featured on CBS and ABC TV, WGN radio and the NPR affiliate in Chicago, and in publications such as "The New York Times", "Washington Post", "San Francisco Chronicle", "Teacher Magazine" and "USA Today". The Chicago Tribune called Wavelength "a comedy troupe in a class by itself."
