Last night we had the joy of celebrating some of the people who make Venables Theatre such a special place: our volunteers. ❤️

From scanning tickets and ushering patrons to pouring drinks, putting up posters, greeting guests, answering questions, and helping every event run smoothly, our volunteers are at the heart of so much of what we do.

We celebrated with delicious food from Oliver Eats Ltd., caricatures by Monte, and a very fun round of Musical Bingo with Russ and Reece. There were lots of gifts, prizes, laughs, and a chance to recognize our long-serving volunteers for the incredible time and care they have given to the theatre over the years.

Venables Theatre is more than a stage. It is a gathering place, a creative home, and a community space, and that feeling exists because of the people who show up with their time, energy, humour, and heart.

To our volunteers and friends of the theatre: thank you. We are so grateful for everything you do to keep this place welcoming, vibrant, and full of life.

You are truly the stars of Venables Theatre. 🌟
