Volunteer

At Florida Studio Theatre, volunteers are vital in helping us continue our mission of making theatre accessible and affordable to the Sarasota community. Volunteers generously donate their time by helping out in one or more of our various departments. In return, they get an inside peek at the workings of Florida Studio Theatre, meet high-caliber actors and artists, and witness the process of taking a production off the ground and onto the stage.

FST is seeking enthusiastic and committed volunteers to assist in the following areas:

  • Ushering
  • Data Entry
  • Mailing Support
  • Telephone Calls
  • Costume Shop
  • Production Work
  • Flyer Distribution
  • Airport Transportation for Artists

For more information, or if you have questions, contact us at FSTVolunteers@floridastudiotheatre.org

I love FST’s emphasis on education and community inclusion. Ushering at FST provides an opportunity to interact with people who are willing to explore a diversity of ideas. It’s always nice to be appreciated for volunteering and FST never takes its volunteers for granted. 

- Deborah Wendell, 2023 Volunteer of the Year
