    Description

    West Bay Opera Front of House Volunteers NEEDED

    Hello! We are seeking additional front of house volunteers for our upcoming production of Richard Strauss' opera "Salomé."

    Performance times are

    Friday, February 13 - 7 pm - Arrive 5:45 pm - Wrap up by 9 pm

    Sunday, February 15 - 2 pm - Arrive 12:45 pm - Wrap up by 4:30 pm

    Saturday, February 21 - 7 pm - Arrive 5:45 pm - Wrap up by 9 pm

    Sunday, February 22 - 2 pm - Arrive 12:45 pm - Wrap up by 4:00 pm

    Arrival times for front of house volunteers are mandatory, to allow for training and prep tasks.

    Salome is a short opera in one act (total 100 minutes). No intermissions.

    Volunteers need to be comfortable scanning tickets at the door, or selling beverages at our concessions stand, or ushering people to their seats. Prior experience is desirable but not indispensable. We will train you and assign you to a role. You cannot apply for a specific role but you can tell us what you would prefer.

    You do NOT need to commit to volunteering for all four dates.
