Volunteer with The White Theatre at The J

Usher

No performance at The White Theatre could happen without our incredible volunteer ushers, who ensure a safe and welcoming experience for our patrons. 

Ushers act as hosts and support performances by handing out programs, seating patrons, scanning tickets, assisting with the box office, selling concessions, and creating a warm theatre-going experience for our audience members. 

Ushers generally arrive one hour before performances, are asked to dress professionally and respectfully, and will be given an Usher badge to wear during the performance. 

Ushers also receive complimentary tickets to performances that they volunteer at. 

Backstage Crew & Scene Shop

Those who are interested in volunteering to support our technical and production teams can do so in a variety of ways. This includes: building and painting scenery, organizing props and backstage spaces, assisting with load-ins and strike, and helping performances run smoothly backstage. 

Volunteer opportunities vary throughout the season, and may take place during daytime, evening, or weekend hours depending on production schedules. No prior theatre experience is required for many opportunities — just a willingness to learn, collaborate, and be part of the creative process.
