THE Bolton Octagon is offering free show tickets to enthusiastic and responsible volunteer workers.

They need someone to operate a validation machine for car park chips, situated in the theatre's William Hare bar, before the show and during the interval. One volunteer is required each night.

As an incentive, the volunteers will have free parking and get to see the show. This year is the Octagon's 40th, and the season includes Oh What A Lovely War featuring Matthew Kelly, festive favourite A Christmas Carol and Arthur Miller's classic The Crucible.
