TFA is looking for dedicated, friendly individuals to assist patrons with seating, programs, and general customer service. The usher is the first representative of TFA that most patrons will meet when attending a performance. Our ushers tend to the welcome, comfort, and safety of audience members, directing them to their seats and facility accommodations, as well as to the exits in case of emergency.

Greeting patrons (indoors and outdoors)

  • Greeting motor coaches (outdoors)

  • Scanning tickets

  • Stuffing and/or distributing playbills

  • Assisting patrons in locating their assigned seats

  • Providing general information regarding the facility (i.e. bathrooms, water fountains)

  • Alerting the House Manager of any patron or facility irregularities during performances (i.e. sick patrons, use of recording devices or cameras, A/C issues)

BENEFITS

  • Space permitting, volunteers may attend the production they are helping with once the audience has been seated

  • Receive complimentary water or soda for each shift

  • Earn one complimentary ticket AND one complimentary drink ticket for every three shifts worked

    • NOTE: Tickets may be redeemed for any performance within the season in which they are earned

  • Receive one complementary ticket to a preview performance of each production within the season.
