QSE Volunteer program
Like any not-for-profit organization, QSE relies on the contribution of volunteer members and supporters for the smooth running of its activities. Volunteers are especially valuable around production times, when we need assistance with such activities as operating the box office, disseminating information, and taking bookings. We would also welcome expressions of interest from individuals with IT, accounting, or marketing expertise wanting to be involved with an energetic theatre company on a voluntary basis.
QSE volunteers receive free tickets and invitations to discussions and special events that would normally only be open to Core members and Apprentices.
Anyone interested in becoming a QSE volunteer should send an email to info@qldshakespeare.org or leave a message on (07) 3365 3269.
