Wizard of Oz Volunteers

This is where you can see the open slots for the House volunteer opportunities and get a clear outline of all the responsibilities for each position. (The House deals with the services that the audience needs in order to enjoy the theater: ushering patrons, concessions, etc.).)

First there is a time dimension of when we need people.

• Advance Party (not day of performance)      
  This happens both days & weeks before, depending on when we get programs, and lollipops      
  • Day before for flowers 
    Stuff Programs, Create Lollipop Bouquets, Create Flower Bouquets, Pre-orders
• Set Up Crew 1 and 1/2 hours before performance 
  Set up tables, stuff brochures, create some bouquets, put out food, novelties, sell tickets
• During Performance  most people may also see the performance, except for the last few minutes of act one and act two (since there are two intermissions.) One person from each group needs to stay outside during each performance though. This can rotate.

Then there are the actual positions:

• Sell tickets
  • We are looking for 3 volunteers for each performance to assist with selling tickets & to work at will call (pre-sold tickets).  Ticket volunteers will be asked to be at the box office 1 hour prior to performance when the box office opens.  Some volunteers might be asked to stay 10 minutes or so after the show begins for late arrivals
• Ushers  (wear white tops with black bottoms) -- 1 hour before performance for some
  • Duties include: stuff program guides, keep people out until show time, keep all food out, give out programs, guide people to seats, open doors for actors, help handicapped, have emergency forms, pick up trash (left programs, etc.) after performance
• Sell Food  & Drink
  • Basic Math Skills (everything $1 or increments of $1 4 for $1)
• Sell Novelties  (rose crowns, lightups, etc.)
  • More Advanced $1, $2, $3, $5 increments
• Sell Flowers and Lollipop Bouquets & Grams*
  • More Advanced $1, $2, $3, $5, $7, $10, $20 increments plus preorders
     

Teenagers, middle schoolers love the above!

• Runners
  • Great for elementary school kids to deliver grams, flowers, to the back room, should be able to read names.

The schedule is below in both pdf and Microsoft word formats, click on it to see it. I have updated the schedule with people's names so you can see where there is a need. If you see that I have put you down incorrectly, please email me at pamlemieux@comcast.net.

To sign up for a specific House (ushers, selling, runners, flowers) performance and duty,

email me at pamlemieux@comcast.net

(click the link, the link will put in the appropriate email subject and fields.)

I need to know whether you can do:

• Advance Crew (days or weeks before performance)
• Set Up (1 1/2 to 1 hour before performance)
• During Performance (and whether you have to be able to see that show except the last 5 minutes of the last acts (there is one intermission) -- remember I need one person willing to stay out front, especially the first weekend)
• And your preference for:
  • usher, novelties, food, flowers & grams (or if you have a child, runner)
  • (I will make every attempt to meet your preference, but all stations need to be manned)

I'm looking for some more people who love flowers to help make up the bouquets beforehand!
