Volunteers have been a building block of our theatre throughout our 29-year history, and play a vital role in MPAC’s success as a non-profit organization.

From assisting in the theater’s “Front of House” before, during or after a performance to working with the administrative staff, volunteers participate meaningfully in all areas of theater life. Through this rewarding program, volunteers also have the opportunity to participate in parties and other specially planned activities throughout the season.

Front of House

If you have an interest in the performing arts and enjoy working with the public, we invite you to apply to join our corps of more than 100 enthusiastic and dedicated volunteers!

Volunteers serve as ticket takers, ushers, concessionaires, line managers and merchandise sellers. For each show, they are an essential part of the team that helps to create an enjoyable and comfortable theatergoing experience for our audience.

Please know that volunteers who enter our program are required to attend a Volunteer Orientation and are required to volunteer for a minimum of 18 performances per season. Performances are staged throughout the week and on weekends. These requirements are necessary to ensure that MPAC can provide the highest quality patron experience.

Thank you for your continued support of our volunteer program. Our Program is closed for the rest of our 2023-24 season. All other inquiries will be placed on a waitlist until Summer.

Please click here to fill out the volunteer inquiry and the Front of House Director will get back to you.

Please contact epach@mayoarts.org with any questions.
