VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! To prepare for the renovation of the Crooker Theater stage, we had a group of about 40 volunteers who kindly helped us move the large set pieces. Now, we need your assistance in carefully returning these sets to the stage as we get ready for our upcoming production of Phantom of the Opera!
We are in search of 30-40 volunteers who can join us at 9am TOMORROW, Saturday, January 20, to help move the three large set pieces back onto the stage. It is crucial that we have enough people to handle this task with care. With the right number of hands, the moving process should take no more than 30 minutes. However, if you are available to stay longer and assist with moving other items, that would be greatly appreciated.
If you are interested and available to help, please reach out to Michael Millett at mmillett@brunswicksd.org. Alternatively, you can also show up on the day of the event if you are unable to commit at this moment.
Thank you for considering this opportunity to contribute to our theater community. We truly appreciate your support!
