Since nearly the beginning of time, Niobe has served as the Goddess of Tears in the digital Cloud of Olympus, approving or denying access to every single teardrop. But with mortal requests reaching staggering proportions and a memory pecking at her from behind her filter, it may be time for her to quit the program…if only the other gods would let her. Alone behind her desk and her malfunctioning filter, Niobe searches not only for the cause of her own locked-away cries, but also for a connection with someone that’s stronger than the divine wi-fi. Will she finally find herself again after all these years and tears, or will she be punished and disconnected for all of eternity?

Goddess of Tears was written specifically for virtual performance. Four schools will be part of its fall 2020 rolling world premiere: Basha High School (AZ), Leavenworth High School (KS), Logan High School (OH) and Socorro High School (TX). 

LHS Theatre is an equal opportunity organization at Logan High School.  Located in the foothills of Appalachia in Hocking County, Ohio, LHS Theatre strives to provide opportunities to students of all backgrounds and talents, as well as providing families and the community with quality theatre.  

The LHS Theatre program consists of at least two full length productions per year - the fall play and the spring musical, which is produced in conjunction with the LHS Choir Department.  In addition, two nights of one acts are offered each year - in December and May - showcasing the talents of Acting I and Acting II students.  A student written Christmas play, Shakespeare in the Courtyard, drama camp, flying workshops, and a winter show are some of the other opportunities for theatre available at LHS.

LHS Theatre has consistently performed well at the state level, having been invited to the State Thespian Conference with every screened production submitted.  Full length credits to the state conference include Godspell, Pirate Girl (an original LHS production written by theatre instructor Shelly Riggs), and The Three Musketeers.  Students regularly compete in individual events at the state level, and participate in the All-Ohio show.
