Theatre happens onstage, backstage, and everywhere in between. Every production is a shared effort, with room for the whole school community.
Program Overview
A student-powered theatre program
We are a self-funded high school theater program at Mendham High School that produces a fall play, a spring musical, and a dedicated Broadway Night showcase each year. Our program is heavily student-powered, featuring crucial student leadership roles including assistant student directors. Furthermore, our complete stage production environments are entirely custom designed and built from scratch by our student-only stage crew.

OUR HISTORY
Mendham High School had been putting on shows for many years before English teachers Mrs. Oehrlein and Mr. Braccino officially founded the Mendham Players in 2013. They set out to make theatre a place for the whole student body, opening the program beyond those cast onstage to include the many creative and technical roles that bring each production to life.
