ACT welcomes all volunteer involvement and is a volunteer-driven community theatre!

Our ushers, set and costume builders, actors, singers, and box office helpers are all volunteers! Volunteers are encouraged to participate in every area of production. Basic instruction and guidance is offered to each individual. If you are enthusiastic about learning a new skill, we will teach you!

Backstage:

Includes: sewing, scenic painting, carpentry, prop gathering, follow spot operation, sound and lighting board operation. We need stage managers, assistant stage managers, and run crew for every show that we produce.

Front of House:

Includes: office help, box office workers, house managers and ushers.

Volunteers are also needed to serve on the board of directors and on various committees and to assist with marketing and fundraising.

An orientation session will be held the first Tuesday of every month at 6:30 pm at Asheville Community Theatre. Those interested in volunteering in any area of the theatre should plan to attend an orientation. To register, please contact Jenny Bunn, Program Director, at 254-2939 x21 or by email at jenny@ashevilletheatre.org.
