Theatre Network is seeking enthusiastic and dependable volunteers to join our team in The Roxy Theatre at 10708 124 Street.

Bar Volunteers Bar volunteers help with bar service. They must have ProServe certification (we can help you get certified!). They serve drinks under the supervision of Theatre Network’s Front of House staff, and may process payments using our point of sale system. Bar volunteers have the option of sitting in to watch the performance. Other Roles Other roles may be available on a per show basis. More info will be provided if this is the case!
