We often say that the only skill a volunteer needs is the desire to learn! Even if you have little experience, are looking to create lifelong connections, or want to give back to your community, there is a place for you.
Positions are open to individuals 18 and older, except for certain shows that have roles for children open to ages 10 and above.
Most volunteer positions can fit with your schedule with daytime, weekend, and evening times available. However, many production aspects require more consistent and long-term commitments.
If you would like to become involved, it’s easy: fill out our Volunteer/Membership Form which lets us know your area(s) of interest and your availability. Then return the completed form to us via mail or email, and we’ll take it from there.
