"Rabbit Hole"

I have had many people telling me that they want to work on "Rabbit Hole" if they don't get cast.  If you want to work on the show please come to the audition and talk to me.

We at PCA have such a hard time with our volunteer program.  The problem is ours and we are trying to find a simple way to rectify it.  Our problem is that we get volunteer applications and don't really have a need for that particular volunteer at the moment so they tend to fall between the cracks.
Here is what I want to suggest to anyone who wants to volunteer at the theater.  First fill out the form, then look up the shows that are coming up and either contact the director yourself (yes, a little scary but none of us bite and I think that every one of us would welcome the call) or come to the first night of audition and talk to the director in person.  It is an imperfect system but right now it is a sure fire way that you are going to get your feet wet in the theater.

Volunteers need to realize up front that working on a show is a HUGE commitment.  It involves rehearsals and attending every show.  There are a few jobs that might not involve quite as much time; the costumers sometimes need people who sew to alter or make costumes. Normal makeup and hair don't really join a show until dress rehearsals start (artistic and period hair and makeup is a much longer commitment and usually takes some expertise in that field).  People who gather props as well as the ones who build and paint the set can do that in advance and not have to be at each show, but the majority of the jobs require that you be at EVERY SHOW AND REHEARSAL!  I have seen people's eyes glaze over when I tell them this.  We are all a little nuts and if you have the theater bug bad enough to do what we do for the love of the craft then please join us!
