| Debbie Lauer, one of the founding members of WAVELENGTH,
and ROCHELLE RICHELIEU, artistic director, have created a one-woman, hour-long,
comedy keynote presentation. FACULTY LOUNGE captures the voices of all
who inhabit the educational community: teachers, parents, students, administrators,
and a few surprises.
Debbie presents the program along with WAVELENGTH’S piano accompanist.
Debbie is a theatre graduate of Colorado State University, and has studied
with such comedy notables as Marty Feldman, George Carlin and Jonathan
Winters. She possesses a rare gift for physical comedy that has delighted
WAVELENGTH audiences since 1980.
FACULTY LOUNGE highlights one week in the lives of five teachers, focusing
on the typical challenges today’s educators face. The show tackles
such diverse issues as: Authentic Assessment, Block Scheduling, Multiple
Intelligences, Educational Burn-Out, Site-Based Management, and Violence/Conflict
Management.
As Debbie deftly moves from character to character, your faculty will
empathize with some, recognize themselves in others, and be gently challenged
to have compassion for all who serve to educate our children.
