There are plenty of things to do behind the scenes and as an all-volunteer community theater, we appreciate help of any kind! Find the latest volunteer activities by searching our Civic Champs calendar in the link below.
VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
USHERS, HOUSE MANAGERS, PUB, AND BOX OFFICE VOLUNTEERS
Our volunteers are essential to the success of our productions. Whether you volunteer has an usher, house manager, or in the pub or box office, we appreciate your efforts to create a welcoming environment for our patrons. Footlite Musicals uses a volunteer management app, Civic Champs, where volunteers can sign-up for specific dates and positions. Two to three weeks before each show, the Volunteer Committee will provide a link to sign-up for shifts. This link will be posted on this Facebook group, as well as posted to the Footlite website and emailed to the volunteer mailing list. If you have any questions or need assistance, contact our volunteer committee at volunteer@footlite.org.
MUSICIANS
We are always looking for musicians to lend their talents to our musical productions. Directors and/or musical directors will determine who will participate in the ensemble, either by selection or audition. The amount of rehearsal time needed will vary from show to show and will depend on the difficulty level of the musical. As Footlite is an all-volunteer organization, all work is on a voluntary basis and therefore not paid. Your information will be held in a database maintained by Footlite Musicals’ directors. Directors will call to fill positions as needed. Musicians will be called only when positions are available! Please contact our volunteer committee volunteer@footlite.org for more information or to express interest in volunteering.
DIRECTORS
Each season, we seek director proposals from new and experienced directors. Proposals are typically requested in early fall, with the possibility of a required interview in October. All information and criteria will be provided to our membership via email, to the public via social media, and by request to those who express interest.
Our seasons consist of:
• Four mainstage productions
• September, March and May for 3 weeks – 11 performances
• A November holiday production for 4 weeks – 14 performances
• Cabaret-style production in January for 3 weeks – 9 performances
• Young Artist (ages 13-18) production in July for 2 weeks – 7 performances
For questions, please contact our show selection committee at showselection@footlite.org.
