Volunteers
We have a dedicated and enthusiastic core group of volunteers of all ages who are an important part of the Shakespeare Link family and make a massive contribution to the upkeep and development of the Mid Wales Shakespeare Centre.
Because there is so much going on at the centre, we can offer experience in an unusually wide variety of roles, and we are able to provide for travel and food expenses. Why not try your hand at:
- Maintaining the theatre auditorium
- Technical theatre support – lighting, sound
- Running front of house facilities
- Preparing the Black Barn for wet-weather cover and skills workshop space
- Sorting, repairing, cataloguing and storing the Mid Wales Shakespeare Centre Costume Store
- Cataloguing and developing the Mid Wales Shakespeare Centre Library of Theatre and Celtic History
- Contributing to the creation of education packs for visitors
- Maintaining the Shakespeare Link website
- Office administration (accounts, database management, IT and so on)
- Promotion and publicity
- Brainstorming and developing new projects
- Funding research and applications
- Events management
- Enhancing links with local communities, groups and schools
- Writing, abridging and augmenting scripts for production
- Running drama workshops
- Recruiting and managing volunteers
- Performing and directing
- Liaising with and booking professional performers
- Involvement with environmental/sustainability initiatives
- Fostering worldwide links through Shakespeare Link Canada and other organisations
