If I listed all that I have done pre and post theatre it would need another thread so yes the word is 'worked'.

You've actually got the question backwards. It should be "How many people in the Theater look at and use these boards?" And the exact answer is everyone from top to bottom. It's the premium website for the world of theatre and in some snarky ways superior to Variety and Playbill.

I've done local/children's theatre my whole life, and am currently in college pursuing degrees in acting and playwriting, so I hope to work in theatre someday!
Worked in theatre for years, not anymore
I can't imagine having a "normal" job after you've worked in theatre/ TV/ movies
many many years ago i worked for CAROLE SHORENSTEIN at the Curran Theatre in San Francisco, for one year as assistant to the producer of shows that came through that season...i was most active on HELLO DOLLY with Carol Channing...this was so long ago...1977/78...i am very old,.,,lol
Going on 5 years as a regionally based actor. Also a freelance critic for a minor publication. Currently working on starting a theatre company
I ushered for the Shuberts, Roundabout, and at the New Am for about 3 years.
Now I'm just a patron
worked for about 7 years steadily in regional & stock theaters in the northeast. Still work in theater, just only locally now while holding down a full time "real job". My board name & avatar say it all, having done 4 different productions of ACL in my time having performed or covered 8 different roles in A Chorus Line.
Worked for over 10 years in professional theatre, then switched careers, but still have many friends and family members in the industry.
Kudos to all who are still making it happen!!

I am a former ballet dancer who went back to school and works as a psychologist. I have never worked in theatre, but I love to watch and support those who do!
