Announcing our 2025-2026 NEHS Drama season!
It's almost theatre season! Here at North Eugene High School, we're already getting ready, licensing productions, cleaning the auditorium, and setting the schedules. And we've already chosen our productions for the year! Tickets will be available for purchase in September. Read on to see what we have in store:
Little Women
Adapted for the stage by Marisa Chamberlain
Chamberlain's play adaptation of "Little Women" retells Louisa May Alcott's classic story of the four March sisters – Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy – as they come of age in Civil War-era New England. The play captures the girls' struggles with poverty, illness, and sibling rivalries, alongside their burgeoning dreams and aspirations. Meg yearns for a family, Jo for a writing career, Beth for domesticity and music, and Amy for artistry and status.
The play emphasizes themes of family, love, individual growth, and the evolving role of women in 19th-century society.

Running November 13th through the 27th
Eight Minutes Left
A play by e.b. lee
This play is a play set in Charlesville, New Jersey, where the residents face the sudden, imminent end of the world at 4:44 PM. The play explores the human response to this apocalypse through a series of vignettes featuring different characters in their final moments. The play captures the absurdity, humor, and fear that emerge in the face of impending doom.

We're moving auditions to mid-December, so check out the Corridor Productions page on this website and mark your calendar!

Fiddler on the Roof
Book by Joseph Stein. Music by Jerry Bock,
and lyrics by Sheldon Harnick.
Fiddler on the Roof centers around Tevye, a Jewish milkman living in the village of Anatevka, Ukraine, in 1905. The story revolves around Tevye's efforts to maintain his religious and cultural traditions amidst encroaching outside influences, which he sees as "Tradition" being like a fiddler on a roof, trying to stay balanced. The challenges to tradition are particularly highlighted by the choices of his three oldest daughters. Don't miss this emotional classic!
This production comes courtesy of Musical Theatre International of New York.
Running April 30th through May 9th
