Runway Theatre runs on volunteer power…
and we're always happy to welcome new family members. If you've been a Runway volunteer for years -- or if this is the first time you've ever considered volunteering -- there are numerous advantages to volunteering.
Whether you're in our box office, behind the concession counter, or scanning tickets at the door, the whole volunteer team is glad to see you and get a chance to "hang" a while together. Our patrons are appreciative of what you're giving: tickets, treats, and entry to our theatre. And, any day you volunteer, if you want it, we've got a free seat to that day's performance reserved just for you!
Front of House
Front of House is an ideal way to dip your toe in Runway’s volunteer pool. For every performance, we need a variety of welcoming people to provide great lobby service for our patrons. You can sign up to run Will Call, usher people to their seats, sell snacks at concessions (21 and over), or even engage with attendees at the events table when needed.
Behind the Scenes
Ready for a bit more? Working backstage can include anything from helping with set or costume changes to running the sound or light board. The typical time commitment for these tasks ranges from a few weeks, including every performance, to the full run of rehearsals. We’re also always looking for talented costume, set, lighting, and sound designers!
On Stage
Every actor at Runway Theatre volunteers weeks of their time, beginning with an audition and staying all the way to strike. Most actors dedicate more than 100 hours before opening night. That kind of dedication definitely deserves a bow. Check our auditions page for information on how you can be onstage for an upcoming Runway production.
