Join our Front of House team (4th – 20th November)

Arts / Entertainment volunteers needed for RABBLE Theatre (formerly Reading Between the Lines Theatre Company) in RG1

RABBLE Theatre is looking for volunteers to join their Front of House team for our production of ‘Who Killed Alfred Oliver?’ from the 4th – 20th November at Reading Minster.

Tasks will involve selling programmes, running our in-house bar, assisting audiences and being the face of RABBLE Theatre.
A key role is welcoming our audience, ensuring their experience (and yours) with RABBLE is positive and that they feel comfortable in our Theatre space as many will be returning to live indoor theatre for the first time since the pandemic.

We ask for a minimum commitment of two shows from all our volunteers. This is so that we can build some consistency in the team – as you can imagine we have a lot of volunteers and having a team who knows what they are doing 1/2 the time is invaluable 🙂
But you can join us for as many shows as you would like.

Evening performances start at 7pm and volunteers will need arrive onsite at 5.45 for a 6pm start we expect to finish at 9.30pm

Matinee performances start at 2.00pm and volunteers need to arrive onsite at 12.45 for a 1pm start we expect to finish at 4.30pm

RABBLE Theatre has always offered volunteers the opportunity to see the show in exchange for volunteering. This is our thank you for your time volunteering with us.
