Get Involved
Every great show has a community behind it. Bring your imagination, your helping hands, or a little something waiting for its next act.
The magic on stage starts with people like you. At Fauquier Community Theatre, neighbors come together to build worlds, tell stories, and make an ordinary evening unforgettable. Whether you love the spotlight or prefer a paintbrush, there is a part for you here.
Volunteer: Find Your Part
Share a skill you love or explore something new. Here are a few ways to help the curtain rise:
- Make the first impression. Welcome guests, help at the box office, and usher audiences to their seats.
- Build another world. Construct sets, paint scenery, or turn everyday objects into memorable stage props.
- Keep the story moving. Join the backstage crew and help with scene changes, props, and the details audiences never see.
- Set the mood. Help with lighting and sound, from designing a dramatic moment to running the show.
- Dress the characters. Sew, alter, mend, and organize costumes, or lend a hand with hair, wigs, and makeup.
- Make music happen. Share your talents as a musician, rehearsal pianist, or music director.
- Shape the production. Bring a story to life through directing, producing, or choreography.
- Spread the excitement. Help promote shows, share theatre news, and connect with our community.
- Support the next act. Lend your skills to fundraising, grant writing, or special events.
- Surprise us. Have a knack for organizing, fixing, making, or solving? Tell us what you enjoy, and let’s find where it fits.
Donations: Give It a Second Act
That jacket in the closet or leftover material in the workshop might have a future on stage. Items that could help bring a production to life include:
- Costumes: Clothing, hats, shoes, jewelry, fabric, and sewing supplies that could help create a character.
- Props: Furniture, housewares, luggage, and distinctive everyday objects that help tell a story.
- Stage materials: Lumber, plywood, hardware, tools, and painting supplies for building our next world.
Please get in touch before bringing items to the theatre so we can discuss what fits our current productions and available storage. A description and a few photos are a great place to start.
