When are we all going to finally take a stand against @SpotlightUK and cancel our memberships? Every couple of months there is a new outrage, it blows over and then NOTHING CHANGES.
Without us they are nothing - yet we have given them all the power.
“Equity is a trade union, and ensuring fair access to good work for our membership is a core part of our role.
The costs of casting should no longer be borne by our members; we will do all we can to reduce and end subscriptions to casting directories.
This tax on hope should end.”
🔈 A message for Equity members
We share the frustration of many members at new @SpotlightUK tiered membership.
We recommend no @EquityUK member takes out ‘Premier membership’ until we understand the reasons for the change, & Council has discussed casting policy this November.
⚠️ WE NEED ALL OUR MEMBERS TO SHARE THIS ⚠️
Every. Single. Company. currently playing a West End theatre is ready to #StandUpFor17🔥
Working in the West End shouldn’t mean having a second job to pay the bills.
Who ran the entire show today with a full company stellar cast and love to tell the tale? These guys! ☺️ my @frozenlondon experience just got that bit more real and special today and doing it with @JustJem is a joy I’m so grateful for 🤎
