Maltz Jupiter Theatre To Host Volunteer Open House THIS SATURDAY At Jupiter Community Center
There's a role for everyone as the Theatre nears completion of its $36 million expansion; come play your part!
Great theater begins with you! That's right; the Maltz Jupiter Theatre is now casting volunteers to help the Theatre shine!
There is magic happening all around the brand-new Maltz Jupiter Theatre as it nears completion of its $36 million expansion, and its staff needs your skills, enthusiasm and time to reopen in January. This season, join the Theatre's cast of more than 400 volunteers and become a part of the fabric of the largest regional theatre in the southern half of the country. Volunteers help in every department in the Theatre, with jobs based on talents, skills and interests.
The Theatre will host a free open house for prospective volunteers this Saturday, August 14, from noon to 3 p.m. Taking place at Jupiter Community Center, all department areas will be represented to discuss specific volunteer jobs. Residents are asked to allow one hour to visit all department stations, with no preregistration required All open house attendees will be entered into a raffle to win a pair of tickets for every limited engagement of the 2021/22 season.
"Volunteering is one of the most important ways people can support the Maltz Jupiter Theatre," said Andrew Kato, producing artistic director and chief executive. "We're coming back to an exciting new space following our big renovation, and having people volunteering their time is going to help bring us closer to reaching our goals of producing the next Broadway-bound play or musical right here in South Florida."
Volunteers currently serve as bartenders, ushers, box office assistants, production support and more, with positions available daytime, evenings and/or weekends. Volunteers are recognized for their service through several appreciation events during the season.
"Most people think of ushering when they think of volunteer opportunities at the Theatre, but there are countless ways that residents can volunteer their time with us," Kato said. "Volunteers can work in our production center building and painting sets in West Palm Beach, pick up actors from the airport or help set up our special events. We'd love to invite anyone interested to stop by and see us at our open house this Saturday to learn more and join our 'family.'"
Here's a sneak peek at a few of the exciting departments up for volunteer consideration:
· Ushering and Bartending
· Shuttle Drivers
· Production (assist backstage or at the costume shop)
· Marketing (special events and festivals, subscription campaign and more!)
· Box office (customer service/Will Call)
· Development (fundraising events)
Step behind the scenes and be part of the Theatre's grand reopening season!
