The Broadway Center for the Performing Arts is home for a rich diversity of arts which entertain, educate, stimulate, and delight while celebrating the creative spirit and enhancing the quality of life in the Pacific Northwest.

Description:
We operate three Tacoma theaters: the Pantages, the Rialto, and the Theatre on the Square. Joining our volunteer team is a win/win situation for everyone. The benefits will fulfill your need to use your talents and to be involved with helping people. This is also a means to satisfy a passion for the arts. While we are mainly interested in adding new ushers, there are also opportunities for tour guide, assisting in the office and special projects. Usher training is on-going throughout the season.

History:
The Broadway Center for the Performing Arts was established in 1983 with the renovation of the Pantages theater. The theater itself was originally built in 1918 as a vaudeville theater, the same year the Rialto was built. While the Center is in the entertainment field, it too has a commitment to connect with the heart of Tacoma. It has almost tripled the number of performances and offers a variety of shows that will be of interest to all people.
