The Lee Norvelle Theatre and Drama Center offers a chance to see free shows by serving as ushers. Ushers are the first people most of our patrons meet face to face. Therefore, we need to provide the best possible service. We want ushers to have a good time meeting the audience with an enduring smile, and great spirits.
Before signing up to usher please read the following information carefully.
