Joining The Crescent
The Crescent Theatre is largely run by volunteers. If you would like to be involved in this thriving community, please visit the Membership page or come to one of our New Members Meetings.
It doesn't matter if you don't want to act - there are lots of opportunities for working in the technical sections such as Sound and Lighting.
Volunteers wanted
The Crescent is seeking volunteers to carry out daytime front of house duties as there are more and more companies using the theatre during the day. It is often impossible for members to fill these posts as they are working in their day jobs so, if you have time on your hands and would like to help the theatre, please contact Rose Snape or Ian Thompson to find out more. See Contact details for phone number and address.
Fundraising
The Crescent Theatre has signed up with 
which raises funds through on-line shopping.
