Later this month we will be holding a Volunteer Recruitment Evening, looking for new volunteers to join our Customer Experience team.

Taking place on Thursday 27th November, it offers a wonderful chance for anyone interested in theatre or looking for an exciting new opportunity, to get involved with their local theatre.

The role of a volunteer includes greeting and seating audience members for performances, checking tickets, assisting with access requirements and being responsible for audience’s safety and comfort pre-show, interval and post-show. No prior experience is required as full training will be given.

The session will take place from 6:30pm – 8:30pm; anyone interested in attending should book a place by completing the below survey by Sunday 23rd November.

The session will include an introduction to the Octagon team, a tour of the building, an informal chat and skills-based activities. Nothing is required to be prepared in advance, and the sessions will give a full overview of what the role entails.

Operations & Customer Experience Manager, Andrew Hughes said: “Volunteers are pivotal members of our customer experience team. Joining us as a volunteer provides an opportunity to learn new skills and meet new people whilst playing an important role in ensuring our visitors and audiences have an enjoyable experience at the Octagon”

The Octagon recruitment day will take place at the Octagon Theatre on Thursday 27th November at 6:30pm.
