 Volunteers Needed to Assist Stage Management Team 

 

The stage management team for the Banyan Theater Company is inviting interested people to volunteer for any of five “work parties” this summer. If you are inclined to join in the festivities (or know someone who is), please send a note to [email protected]. No, there won’t be champagne on hand. But there will be props to schlep and furniture to arrange and floors to tape.

 

Below you’ll find a list of the dates and activities involved. We’re on the lookout for four to six people to pitch in for three to five hours on each of those days. Please know that whether you’re available for one day only or for all five, you’ll be welcomed to the company. Also know that if you’re only available for a couple of hours on any given date, that’s ok too.
