"The Wave" is an original rock musical written by daCapo Productions' Producer Olaf Pyttlik, and recorded as a double CD album at daCapo Productions.

The Wave is based on a frightening true event as recounted in a short story by Ron Jones. A teacher, Dr. Berg, struggles to instill in his students an understanding of how a dictator like Hitler could win the support of an entire nation. He initiates an experiment based on a classroom protocol of unity, discipline, and action, which becomes so powerful that it disrupts the entire school. Unpopular students find acceptance and those who resist the Wave risk being ostracized and the threat of violence. During the course of this experiment, the students and their teacher learn a powerful lesson.

The Wave has been mounted twice. The first production consisted of eight performances during the Winnipeg Fringe Festival (2000) at the Warehouse Theatre. The second production was as part of the MTC Mainstage season the following year.
