Volunteers are always welcome
Are you looking for a creative outlet for your time and talent but haven’t quite found it yet? Consider volunteering at the Lancaster Playhouse!
The theater could use help with ushering, greeting guests, working at intermission, building sets, managing props, costumes or publicity. Actors and directors are volunteers too. Opportunities almost too numerous to mention.
Volunteer a little or a lot.
