Montford Park Players seek volunteers

The Montford Park Players have officially exceeded their goal in pledged donations to renovate Asheville’s beloved Hazel Robinson Amphitheatre, ensuring a fine run of free Shakespearean shows in the park this summer.

The project funding will help bring the current performance space back to life, with new materials for safety, aesthetics and durability. There will also be changes allowing for improved sightlines, lighting and acoustics. The Montford Park Players, an all volunteer non-profit theatre company, are mostly relying on support from their members and the greater Asheville community to help rebuild. Volunteers can swing a hammer or a paintbrush on Saturdays throughout March and April to help keep this 38 year old Asheville tradition alive.

Contact the theater at 254-5146 to volunteer.
