Croswell Opera House

Written By Dena Koehn

Be part of the magic … volunteer!

Volunteers help the Croswell in many ways. Front of House volunteers serve as door greeters, ticket takers and ushers, and also serve food and drinks in the concession stand. Office volunteers might help with mailings, answer phones or assist with promoting a show — for example, by becoming a Croswell Ambassador and distributing posters to local businesses.

If you’d like to spend time backstage, there are plenty of opportunities there as well! Backstage volunteers help with set construction and scenic painting, in addition to serving as stagehands and doing things like operating the light board.
