Opportunity Center

BroadArts Theatre is in search of talented and passionate individuals to help us spread the word that our new show Bunkin' With You in the Afterlife by Jody Seay is about to open!

Full of rambunctious fun, this comedy musical play takes square aim at the sometimes touchy subject of religion and spirituality, as well as homosexuality, equality, and women's rights. The musical features Minnie Rhodes, a lesbian minister, and her Many Roads Ministry, Cowgirls for the Lord, who ride around on horseback in the deep green hills of conservative southern Oregon spreading, and singing, the good news - not of having been saved - but, indeed, of never actually having been lost.

We are specifically looking for a Social Media/Publicity Volunteer and an LGBTQ Community Outreach Volunteer. We've been hard at work getting the show up and running and would endlessly appreciate the extra hands and minds of some dedicated volunteers. College credit may be available.

For more info and to discuss volunteer possibilities please email [email protected] or call us at 503-288-5181.
