Out of Bounds is the biggest week of the year for comedy in Austin, and this year it’s even bigger. Now is a great time to learn about what’s shows are happening, what classes they are offering and how you can get involved. Go to http://www.outofboundscomedy.com/ for all your information.
OOB is looking for volunteers. Here’s how to get involved.
Out of Bounds is almost here and we really need your help! OOB is the biggest comedy festival in Austin, bringing acts from all over the country and the world (this year Isreal!). It is a huge festival this year and we need a lot of volunteers to help us make things run.
We will be needing help in the box office, taking tickets, running the workshop doors, and helping give out registration packets. The festival runs from Wed. Sept. 1st to Mon. Sept. 6th and we need volunteers for all of those nights! If you are interested in helping please email me, Emma Holder, at volunteeroob@gmail.com and let me know when and where you would like to help.
here are the times and places we need help the most:
WED: Salvage Vanguard theater:7:30-10pm
THURS. SVT 7:30- 11:30pm and HIdeout 7:00- 11pm
FRI SVT 7-11:30pm and Hideout at 7-11:30pm
SAT: 6:30pm-11:30pm and Hideout 6:30-11pm
SUN: 5:00-6:00pm SVT
MON 7:30pm-9:00pm SVT
There will of course be breaks in these longer shifts and we will also be giving volunteers a ticket to a show of their choice (except for the big sunday night shows, sorry) in appreciation for all the hard work!
We are also looking for photographers to help take pictures of shows. Email NAdine at ianthe@gmail.com if you are interested.
There are two staff positions available as well. We need box office managers at both venues who are available to work every night at the venue they are given. These people will be given staff badges and have full access to the shows at their venues when possible.
Thanks so much
Emma Holder
