Volunteer at YPT

“Volunteering with YPT has made me come to love theatre more, and has made me come to understand the incredible creative capacity of little minds. I feel it is a place I can always return to and feel confident, supported and important in.”  – Tait, YPT Drama School Volunteer

Our Commitment

We value the importance of volunteerism and make it a priority to ensure that all volunteers have an enriching and satisfying experience as they help to fulfil the needs of the theatre. Because “Learning is at the centre of everything we do”, we offer training and enhanced learning opportunities for our volunteers.

Applications from all interested candidates are welcome, and people with disabilities and individuals from equity-seeking groups are encouraged to apply. Accommodations are available on request for volunteer candidates taking part in all aspects of the selection process.
