Volunteer

At Tellico Community Playhouse, the magic of live theatre isn’t just made on stage—it’s built in the booth, stitched in the costume shop, cued from backstage, and shared through every poster, usher’s smile, and website update. Whether you're a tech-savvy troubleshooter, a creative visionary, or simply curious to lend a hand, there's a role here with your name on it. No experience needed—just a spark of interest and a love for good stories told well.

Why volunteer at TCP?

Tellico Community Playhouse runs on volunteers—and that means people like you. Every performance depends on folks who give their time, share their skills, and bring energy to the stage, the shop, the lobby, and everything in between.

You don’t need experience to get started. Just curiosity, dependability, and a willingness to try something new. We’ll guide you, train you, and connect you with a community that cares about good stories and great people.

Here’s what you can do:

Four adults in period costumes including a priest and three women in vintage dresses and hats standing against a green wall.
