Hi Toronto! I’m in this incredible play by @BustleandBeast at @FactoryToronto. We run till April 2nd. @meta has banned any online promotion on their platforms because apparently talking about “Women’s Rights” and “Iran” are deemed too controversial 🙄. Pls pls spread the word.

[Bustle and Beast @BustleandBeast]

Local #yegtheatre company @BustleandBeast still has not been paid by the ticket company (@BPTickets) for their pre-pandemic show in early 2020. This was the last show I saw BC (before COVID). Support the company and read more here: https://t.co/3muOJJTtpD #yegarts

“It’s been over 7 months. To not pay the 100s of 1000s owed to various groups is absolutely devastating,” said Brenley Charkow, AD of @BustleandBeast. “The arts have been deeply impacted by the pandemic. It’s a kick in the teeth when we’re already down.”

Edmonton theatre company joins lawsuit against Seattle-based ticket agency https://t.co/VWfEcn52jH Thx @edmontonjournal for sharing our story! #ArtisEssential #yegarts #indietheatre #canadiantheatre #girlinthemachine @BustleandBeast

[Bustle and Beast @BustleandBeast]

This is heartbreaking for us. Almost 6 months of waiting for @BPTickets to pay us the money from our ticket sales. #stealingoffthebacksofartists #indietheatre #brownpapertickets

[Brenley Charkow @BrenleyCharkow]

Dear @BPTickets We’ve been waiting 6 mos for our ticket sales for #GirlintheMachine. Stop stealing from artists. No response to emails. No ability to call & speak with a rep. No updates. This is #theft We’ve hired a law firm & action is being taken. #unacceptable @BustleandBeast

Outstanding Multi Media Design: Sean Nieuwenhuis, Girl in the Machine @BustleandBeast

[Bustle and Beast @BustleandBeast]

We’re one of many affected by this. Grateful to have our story shared, and hoping for some resolution soon! Thx @RadioMaga & @TorontoStar for investigating. #indietheatre #yegarts #producer #yegtheatre #edmontonarts #brownpapertickets

[Carly Maga @RadioMaga]

My first time working with @TorontoStar Investigation on a story - online box office @BrownPaperTickets owes Canadians over $50k, Americans over $1 million, in earned ticket revenue, as artists already suffer from #COVID19 cancellations. https://t.co/5fFeA9NHXV

[Bustle and Beast @BustleandBeast]

@smeep22003 We’re so glad you got the chance to see it!

[Bustle and Beast @BustleandBeast]
