Join our ever growing group of volunteers
Ogunquit Playhouse’s mission is to create exceptional theatrical experiences that spark joy and enrich our community. As a non–profit organization, we rely on the generosity of supporters like you to help make that happen.
Types of volunteering
Parking
Parking attendants greet guests as they arrive at the Playhouse and clearly direct them to the proper parking locations (Northbound, Southbound, VIP, Handicap). Traffic must be kept moving in a consistent manner using good judgment. Attendants must be comfortable interacting with all guests and possess outstanding customer service skills.
Ticket Scanners
Ticket Scanners use handheld electronic devices to scan guest admissions by paper or on the guest’s smartphone. This validates tickets and tracks accurate attendance. These volunteers also act as problem solvers, directing guests to their designated seats.
Ushers
During pre-show, ushers assist House Managers stuffing, placing, and distributing playbills; arranging chairs; and other tasks needed to open the house. Once open, ushers escort guests to their seats. After the show, ushers inspect seating areas for debris, lost items, and playbills to be recycled.
Assisted Hearing Devices
Assisted Hearing volunteers will receive special training from House Managers on the operation of these devices, to instruct guests on proper use. Once trained, they will be available pre-show, during intermission, and after the show to check and maintain device functionality, replace batteries, and troubleshoot any guest issues.
