As a volunteer steward you would be part of our busy and experienced Front of House team.

You would also be required to take part in the Fire evacuation procedure. The majority of the work is in the evenings, although we sometimes have matinee performances. You would usually be able to see the show you are working. Why should you join our team? You have an interest in the Arts and would like the opportunity to learn new skills. You would like to do something for your community and see some great shows and events.

You would like to share your existing skills and experience to benefit the organisation.
