Volunteering

FRIENDS OF THE EXCHANGE

With the Exchange opening back up and the calendar getting busy with theatre events we’re pleased to announce our Friends of The Exchange programme.

The Exchange houses an eclectic mix of events and shows in the form of one-nights and short theatre runs which makes us a very unique venue; unlike traditional theatres which house multiple weeks of the same show. We are looking for a friendly team of volunteers who can assist with the smooth running of our shows & events.

Volunteer responsibilities include:

  • Greeting patrons, taking tickets & directing patrons to proper entry door into the theatre
  • Allowing or disallowing access into the theatre seating areas
  • Report any ticket problems to the Events Assistant on Duty  
  • Familiarising yourself with concession area to provide assistance if needed
  • Answering questions and provide patrons with directions and other information regarding the theatre
  • Ensuring patrons follow theatre safety policies and that all fire codes are enforced
  • Distribute promotional materials for upcoming performances to patrons
  • Provide information and direct patrons to appropriate exits in the event of an emergency

What you can expect from us:

  • We have a Friends of the Exchange card, after working 5 shows you are entitled to 2 free tickets to a show or event (subject to availability)
  • A complementary tea/coffee while on shift
  • An opportunity to sit in and watch the show while volunteering
  • An opportunity to meet new friends and learn new skills
  • An opportunity to be part of an exciting, one-of-a-kind experience
  • You are welcome and encouraged, to volunteer as often as you like

If this is something you’d like to be a part of please email us at: exchangetwickenham@stmarys.ac.uk
