If you're interested in acting, you may also find volunteering for the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center fun and rewarding. I am a volunteer usher and I choose to work the shows I want to see. There are a wide variety of shows from which to choose since it includes performances in the Belk Theater, Booth Playhouse, McGlohon Theatre, Duke Energy Playhouse and Stage Door Theater, all uptown. Belk Theater is also in need of volunteer tour guides.
I love helping out and seeing the shows for free! Here's more info if you're interested.
