Volunteer with Playtime Poppy Children’s Theatre

We know how much you love Playtime Poppy productions and the educational opportunities we offer to children and families. Playtime Poppy invites you to join us!  

Ushering

Ushers are needed at each of our high school productions throughout the season. Performance times for the productions are:

  • Thursdays at 5:00 p.m.

  • Fridays at 5:00 and 7:30 p.m.

  • Saturdays at 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.

Ushers should arrive one hour prior to performances for a brief orientation. Ushers are welcome to have children with them to assist in handing out programs and greeting patrons. After all patrons are seated, ushers are invited to stay and enjoy the performance. Performances are typically one hour in length.

Playtime Poppy

Playtime Poppy dances, gives hugs and high fives, and listens to stories from children and families who LOVE Playtime Poppy. We offer training to each of our mascot guide volunteers. A guide accompanies our happy little ear of corn at each event to provide her with a steady arm. We would love to have you join our crew of dedicated mascot volunteers.
