July is fast approaching, and we are seeking volunteers for this year’s marvellous Second annual Edge of the Woods Theatre Festival. This year, we have companies from Huntsville, Toronto, and Montreal. presenting alternative theatre in four different towns around the Muskoka/Parry Sound district. It’s a great line-up, and to run each night smoothly we need some help.
If you’re interested, here are the details! If you aren’t, please forward this far and wide to people who are!
-We need people from July 9-13, to assist with our kids activity table, help with getting the audience from place to place throughout the evening, moving equipment (this is optional for anyone who can’t lift heavy things), and helping to collect the audience donations that keep the festival afloat.
The dates and venues of the festival are as follows:
Thursday July 9th Heritage River Walk, Burks Falls
Friday July 10th & 11th Town Docks, Huntsville
Sunday July 12th Town Docks, Port Sydney
Monday July 13th Memorial Park, Bracebridge
Activities begin at 6:30pm. Feature Performances start at 7pm.
-Volunteers need to be on site between 5:30pm and 8:30pm on the night they volunteer. This includes a quick briefing and set-up, so anyone volunteering for more than one night can come later on subsequent nights.
-Perks of volunteering include seeing the whole line-up of shows for free, plus free soup and bread, not to mention our undying gratitude and the satisfaction of helping out a small festival.
If you can help out, email us info@edgeofthewoodstheatre.com or call us at 705-571-4334.
Hope to see you all there!
