The Akron Civic Theatre is primarily run by our fantastic group of volunteers. Our volunteers do a variety of different activities including scanning tickets, seating patrons in the 2,500 seat theatre, escorting patrons throughout the theatre, answering general building questions, and offering excellent customer service! We also host monthly tours where volunteers help escort visitors, as well as many unique events that we ask for volunteers to be involved with.
Please consider joining our volunteer community today! Send inquiries to Jayme Bryson, Volunteer Coordinator, at jbryson@akroncivic.com or by phone at 330-535-3179 ext. 209.

Description
Long recognize among the community's cultural landmarks, the Akron Civic Theatre has a rich and spectacular history. It has provided the community with a venue for quality entertainment and live performances for over 77 years. During that time, hundreds of thousands of people have been thrilled by various theatrical presentations, both on stage and on screen. The theater was built in 1929 by Marcus Loew and designed by famed theater architect, John Eberson. The interior structure was fashioned after a Moorish castle featuring Mediterranean decor, including medieval carvings, authentic European antiques and Italian alabaster sculptures. Among facilities of its size, the Civic is one of only 5 remaining atmospheric theaters in the country where patrons experience a twinkling star-lit sky and intermittent clouds moving across the horizon, all while sitting inside the auditorium.
