This role is for anyone interested in the technical and back-stage aspects of Theatre and Performance.

  • Technical Volunteers assist incoming companies with knowledge of the building to ensure the artiste(s) visit is a safe, accessible and enjoyable experience.
  • Technical Volunteers will be able to observe, assist or take part in technical roles such as: prepping the venue, get-ins, get-outs and live shows (where possible).
  • Our volunteers represent the local community who are interested in the arts and film. Volunteers help us achieve our purpose – which is to be a thriving and successful artistic cultural and community venue. To be a hub to support local artists both professional and amateur with performance space and resources.
  • Volunteers support us by bringing their enthusiasm, life experience and skills to this role.
  • Do you have some free time during the day or evening? Are you Over 18? Are you mobile and able to undertake activity involving stairs, walking and undertaking some manual handling?
  • Would you appreciate a flexible volunteer role that welcomes your support as and when you are free to commit? (*all we ask is that you are willing to engage with and keep up to date with a small amount of training that is essential to the role? E.g. Awareness/understanding of the Playhouse).
  • Are you someone who enjoys working behind the scenes or would like to see first-hand just how much goes on for a show at the Playhouse?
  • Are you interested in technical aspects such as lighting, sound or stage?
  • Do you enjoy being active as part of a team?
  • Do you enjoy film, theatre, live music and the arts?
  • Can you share our Aim to be perceived as a friendly and vibrant environment where all people are respected, valued and can take part in rewarding experiences? If you can answer yes to the above, then we would love to hear from you.
This role requires someone with good mobility as it is an active role, the theatre has a stepped auditorium, many back stage stairs and some manual handling is required. The majority of the tasks undertaken are completed before and after a show so flexibility of hours is appreciated as is the need to be available late in to the night. Get-out after a show often continues after public transport has stopped so access to a car or access to lifts home is essential, unless living locally in Alnwick.
