    Description

    radio island

    radio island tells the story of an international hostage negotiator who returns to her childhood home where global and local worlds collide as memory, family, and buried histories surface. What begins as a homecoming in this gothic thriller becomes something far less predictable – a reckoning with people, places, and unfinished business that whispers ‘silence is more dangerous than you think.’

    As a volunteer usher, you are an integral part of the Quantum Theatre experience. Your customer service and positive attitude affect the experience of each patron. Quantum patrons rely on you to find each new venue and how to navigate the new area. You may be asked to work outdoors. Volunteer Ushers are permitted to watch the performance for free (space permitting).
