At TBR, volunteers are the heartbeat of our theater! While we have a small team of full-time staff, most of our magic happens thanks to our amazing volunteers. From our Boards of Governors and Advisors, to planning committees, special project helpers. performers and production crews, every role is crucial.
Some roles require more training and commitment (marked with #), but all offer a chance to be part of the TBR magic. Some are briefly listed below.
