Actors Cabaret of Eugene, as a nonprofit performing arts organization, strives to meet a variety of goals that support our mission. These include: filling the continued void in recent arts education cuts in the public schools by providing workshops, classes and full scale productions; providing high quality, enlightening theatrical entertainment to the local community; selecting productions for performance that are diverse and appropriate to the community’s needs; encouraging and supporting local playwrights by providing a vehicle for showcasing their works; maintaining affordable ticket prices so that the theater experience is available to audiences of all income levels; and collaborating with other community groups.
