Front of House Volunteers for Main Stage Performances
Ushers arrive 45 minutes prior to opening
House Managers arrive 1 hour prior to curtain time.
Ushers need to be able to navigate the steps to help patrons find seats.
Never volunteered to be House Manager before? We’ll train you! Do you have a friend who enjoys theater? Why not invite them along to be an usher with you! Being an usher is a great way to see the play and get to know the rest of the board and many of the regular volunteers at the Playhouse.
OTHER MEANINGFUL CONTRIBUTIONS to the Playhouse
In Kind Donation – Perhaps you have a surplus of paint or lumber that you would be willing to donate for sets for a future production or a stash of fabric, sewing notions, patterns, vintage clothing in good condition that could be used for costumes? Cleaning supplies, office supplies, – these are all things that the theater needs and uses and when we get a donation of these items that we can use it means we save money and can stretch our budget that much further.
Playhouse Volunteer – The work of the Playhouse goes on year-round. The real stars of the Playhouse are not actors on stage, but those who volunteer and do the work behind the scenes to keep the Playhouse working and running smoothly. There are a host of ways to volunteer and make a difference, from helping with the facility (gardening, building upkeep, painting,), helping on one of several committees (fundraising, gala planning, season planning) data entry, social media, and more. The Playhouse provides training and can plug you in to small projects or big, long-term projects – whatever your interest and availability.
We need help with all things administrative including social media and marketing, scanning old materials and digitally archiving 60 years of history. There is so much to do just to keep the playhouse maintained. And, now with no people in the audience, it’s the perfect time to clean, declutter and sanitize. Costumes, props and all-things backstage always need your help. We are following COVID procedures to limit exposure. so masks must be worn in the playhouse. If you are not comfortable being in the building, we can find something for you to do either outside or at your location.
Production Volunteer – It takes many, many people to bring a production to the stage. The Playhouse is ALWAYS looking for willing people who want to create magic on the stage and who are wanting to learn new skills. We provide training for people to hang stage lights and operate the light board, work as a front house usher or House Manager, work backstage as a crew member, dresser, stage manager. Do you enjoy sewing – we would love to have your help making new costumes. Do you have experience styling hair, we would love to have your expertise as a hairdresser or wig master for one of our shows. You can swing a hammer or a paint brush? We need able bodied men and women to design and leg up our sets. We offer flexible hours for retired people and people who work during the day – we can help you find your special niche where you are NEEDED and VALUED and APPRECIATED.
We have lots of fun behind the scenes as well as in front of the curtain. If you have any questions or would like to volunteer in some capacity, you can:
