Theatre Southwest is searching for someone to answer their phones. The main part of the job would be taking reservations over the phone.
Although there are times the phone lines are very busy, there are other times when they are relatively quiet. The theatre’s phone number can be transferred to someone’s home.
Unfortuantely, we can pay only a minimual amount. This is best for someone who is at home a lot. If you or someone you know is interested please phone 713-661-9505.
