DescriptionSome 400 volunteer members (men and women) of the Shaw Guild support the Shaw Festival Theatre. The members share a common interest in theatre and a desire to contribute to "The Shaw" and the community.  
The varied interests and skills of the guild members provide the expertise and enthusiasm needed for almost any project. The members welcome patrons at all four theatres, lead backstage tours for groups, assist in keeping the Shaw Festival Theatre's gardens and participate in other special projects throughout the year, such as the Shaw Garden Tour. The Shaw offers many opportunities for Guild members to catch a glimpse of life beyond the stage. 
 
A partnership with the Film Circuit, a branch of the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) brings contemporary films to the Festival Theatre during the winter months. Tickets are sold by phone or in person at the Festival Theatre Box Office at 905-468-2172 or 1-800-511-7429.
