ACT relies on volunteers like you
It takes a lot to make a script come to life. At ACT, our volunteers are the real stars of the show. For every ACT production, set builders, costume and prop masters, sound and lighting technicians, musicians, and actors create the mise-en-scene that helps the audience escape into our entertaining, thought-provoking productions. Ushers, ticket takers, and box office attendants greet the audience and prepare them for an amazing theatre experience. In addition, green room helpers prepare performers and back-of-house experts for that night’s performance. So, whatever your talent, you have a part to play at ACT!
