ACT is a volunteer-driven theatre...Everyone is welcome.

Our ushers, set and costume builders, actors, singers, and box office helpers are all volunteers. Volunteers are encouraged to participate in every area of production. Basic instruction and guidance is offered to each individual. If you are enthusiastic about learning a new skill, we will teach you!

Front of House: Office assistance, box office sales, house management, and ushering.

Backstage: Sewing, scenic painting, carpentry, prop gathering, follow spot operation, sound and lighting board operation. We need stage managers, assistant stage managers, and run crew for every show that we produce.

Volunteers are also needed to serve on the board of directors and on various committees and to assist with marketing and fundraising.

An orientation session will be held the first Tuesday of every month from 6:30-7:30pm at Asheville Community Theatre. Those interested in volunteering in any area of the theatre should plan to attend an orientation. Please drop in and learn how to get involved.
