Actually, volunteering at the theater sounds fun. I had been considering it, myself, since I really need something to do with my time. I am curious, too, to know what kinds of things you do. They're probably menial tasks, but anything to help arts would be nice, I suppose.

Actually, as I'm looking into getting into acting, my local theatre actually takes volunteers in and teaches them the fundamentals and lets them do the shows. Nobody gets paid there, nearly all of the actors in every production are volunteers, and they're what keep the theatre and its productions running! :)

Though I imagine you can do other stuff too, like help clean and whatnot.

What got me into the idea was on a halloween when a bunch of volunteer actors put on a Halloween Haunted House type of thing that used every stage and room of the theatre, all done in different sets with a different theme from various popular horror literature and cinema. It was AWESOME! XD Everybody's costumes and performances were great, and the imagery was fantastic. I remember I walked into the one room with real dead leaves EVERYWHERE, and then "zombies" rose up out of them as the "Necromancer" figure chanted in, I think, Latin. It was badass. Another room had a warped TV and I recognized as being inspired by the North American The Ring. Sure enough, here comes "Sam" crawling and growling, looking EXACTLY like she did in the movie, right down to twitchy movements! The girl who did that was GOOD at it. o.O I kind of ruined it when I tried to wrestle with her, though! :P

But yeah, it was a cool, well-done, interactive production that was really fun, and it would be awesome to be involved with that as one of the characters, or even making the sets, considering how fantastically detailed they were!

I'd focus on the acting, but any little bit to help would be great, like set design and whatever else they'd need! :)

But even theatres larger than this I'm sure provide all sorts of things they need help with. Sets would be a big part of it. Kairi, if you need something to do, do you think that helping to design/setup the Sets for a production might be in your interest?

See, it's stuff like that which makes me like the whole theatre environment itself. If they had a Halloween thing like you talked about around here, I would love to take part of it. I think I could do a pretty good Krueger, because I can take my voice deep like his, and I've seen all the Nightmare movies.
