Donate/Support Savoy

Memberships
Our membership is drawn from all walks of life in the National Capital Region.

For those interested in offstage roles, some 150 people are required each year to fill all the back stage positions necessary to present the show. Except for directors and a professional orchestra, all cast and back stage members are volunteers.

- A voting interest on Society Concerns
- Invitation to Society Events

Volunteers
For those interested in an offstage role there are a wide variety of possibilities, including costumes, make-up, hair, props, Green Room, set construction, stage crew, lighting, sound, front of house, events, and publicity. Coordinators for each of these areas begin assembling their teams in the fall. Some volunteers begin work early, with most involved in the month before the show opens. The set construction crew usually begins work in December or early January
For most volunteers, experience is an asset, but not necessary – in most cases, the experienced people can help new people learn what to do.
Offstage members are welcome at rehearsals, and are encouraged to come out to see how the show is developing and to meet with the cast members.
If you are interest in volunteering, please send an e-mail to volunteers@ottawasavoysociety.org.
