How often have you said out loud, "I would love to do that someday..." or "I always dreamed about being on stage"? Now you can stop talking about it and do it! You can become a part of an exciting and challenging group of theater lovers. We make it fun and easy to become a part of a live theater production! We welcome you to join us for a few hours or a full production. Come to an audition, our monthly membership meeting or drop us a note at info@kirkplayers.org.
Kirk Players are looking for volunteers with experience, or those that want to apprentice, to assist with the many technical roles in our productions. If you have a technical background, some experience, or just want to participate in theatre, please join us! Based on your background, experience and interests we will find a role for you. We are willing to mentor you if you have interest but lack experience. Below is a brief overview of the types of roles available. All of these areas need people on "crews"; team members that help with all of the action on and off stage. If you are interested please join us at any rehearsal or contact our Artistic Director Gretchen Grassl at artisticdirectorgg@gmail.com.
For volunteers who are interested in learning more about membership, please visit our Membership page.
