Volunteering at the Guild
Volunteers are the lifeblood of our organization, from actors, directors, and crew who work directly with a show, to offstage volunteers who read and recommend plays, manage our teen program, publicize our theater, fundraise, or tend the bar and show patrons to their seats on performance nights.
If you want to explore all the different ways you can volunteer, check out the volunteer committees on this page or click the button to check out our volunteer form, which has a complete list of all the ways you can help onstage, backstage, or behind the scenes. See a job you think you’d enjoy? Fill out the form and we’ll be in touch!
Membership
Gina Shuck, Chair
The membership committee welcomes new dues-paying members of the Kent County Theatre Guild and maintains membership rolls.
If you are not already a Guild member, please consider becoming one! Membership in our organization brings with it many benefits, not the least of which is the option to attend our annual meeting and perhaps become a voting member! It will also, if qualified, allow you to serve as a director or assistant director of one of our mainstage productions.
An organization is only as good as its volunteer and membership base. Consider giving back to your community and supporting the arts in Delaware by becoming a member of the Kent County Theatre Guild today!
Playreading
Rebekah Lee, Chair
This is a book club with a difference — all the reading selections are plays that might be performed on our stage with your recommendation! Committee members research and read plays, discuss them at meetings, and put together an annual list of recommended shows. The list is sent out to approved Guild directors, who may request to direct one or more of the shows on the list.
Marketing
Katie Young, Chair
The marketing committee helps get the word out about the Kent County Theatre Guild, assisting with ads, social media, and the website, as well as organizing special events and fundraisers.
Grants
Shelby Bradford, Chair
As a 501(c)(3) organization, the Kent County Theatre Guild is eligible for funding from granting entities. The grants committee researches and applies for grant funding opportunities that align with the Guild’s mission of providing live theater to our local area.
