More than a hundred family, friends, students, and area residents attended the NRHEG One-Act productions of “Clemson Bartholomew,” by David J. LeMaster, and “Ignoble Death,” by NRHEG’s own Deb Bently, on Saturday Feb. 4, 2023.
The performances were co-directed by teachers Solveig Sundblad and Deb Bently.
The evening’s opening performance was the first and only showing of “Clemson Bartholomew.” The 10 cast and crew members of this humorous farce presented business as usual at the “All News All the Time” network where, despite a brewing crisis in the middle east, the newscaster chooses to focus on the rumor that pop icon Clemson Bartholomew may (or may not) be dead.
The feature performance for the evening was the NRHEG 2023 contest play, “Ignoble Death.”

The NRHEG One Act Play ensemble will be presenting two plays for the public at 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 4 in the high school gym. One is the hilarious “Clemson Bartholomew,” which introduces the audience to the “All News All the Time Network.” Despite impending disaster in the middle east, the network focuses on rumors surrounding the possible sudden death of pop icon Clemson Bartholomew.
“Ignoble Death,” the ensemble’s contest play, will also be performed. The play was presented this past week at subsection competition, but ranked behind winning plays performed by USC and St. Clair. This story also features rumors and uncertainty: Socialite Frank Noble has disappeared from a train. Did he fall? Was he pushed? Trapped in the station during the police investigation, characters reveal some of their secrets and shed light on Frank’s “Ignoble Death.”
Admission to watch both plays is $3.
