WE ARE ON THE LOOK OUT 👀

We’re looking for experienced technical theatre volunteers to join our award winning production team, at the Majestic Theatre Retford 🎭

If you’ve spent time backstage, up a ladder focusing profiles, programming cues at midnight, wrangling cables, calling shows, or solving “impossible” problems five minutes before curtain — we want to hear from you.

We’re especially interested in people with experience in:

Lighting (design, rigging, programming, operation) ⚡️

Sound (live mixing, playback, system setup) 🎤

Stage Management 📝

Set build, Flying & stage crew 🛠️

AV & projection 🎥

Production management support 📆

This is a volunteer opportunity ideal for:

Former theatre professionals who miss the buzz

Freelancers between contracts

Retired technicians who still love the craft

Students or graduates wanting to stay hands-on

You’ll be part of a supportive, creative team where your technical experience is genuinely valued. No egos. No drama (well… only on stage).

If you’re reliable, practical, and thrive in a backstage environment, we’d love to connect.

Interested? Get in touch at [email protected] with a brief outline of your experience.

Let’s create something brilliant together 😍

Ballads by Candlelight ✨🕯️

What a night at The Majestic Theatre.

From the first flicker of candlelight to the final note, this one was pure atmosphere. A stunning blend of powerhouse vocals, incredible musicianship and that intimate glow that transforms the space into something really special.

Huge credit to everyone behind the scenes who made it happen, from technical prep and lighting design to stage management and sound. Shows like this might look effortless, but there’s a lot of hard work, planning and teamwork that brings that magic to life.

Proud of our production team for delivering another beautiful evening for our audiences.

Here’s to more nights that shine just as bright ✨
