The Musquodoboit Valley Bicentennial Theatre and Cultural Centre has the distinction of being the only multi-purpose facility in Nova Scotia without paid management. Since 1985, volunteers, committed to promoting the performing arts, have ensured the facility meets the entertainment and cultural needs of the district it serves. Hundreds of people have helped, in some capacity, at this community centre over the past 25 years.
Year round, a 12-member board of directors recruits volunteers from the area and offers opportunities to participate in varied activities involved with the theatre’s events. The expression, many hands make little work, is exemplified at the Bicentennial. Youth work alongside more experienced volunteers and consequently learn new skills they can apply to other areas of their life.
Many people believe they don’t have time to volunteer. But, some theatre duties don’t even require folks to leave the comfort of their own home! Other tasks may only need as little as an hour of your time. The theatre can always match a volunteer with the time they have available.
Our community theatre could not exist without your past, present, and continued support. We hope that your enjoyment of our productions has been, and will continue to be, repayment of your faith and support of the Bicentennial Theatre.
