We applaud @POTUS for proposing a new @NEAarts budget of $201 million - a record-high increase for the agency, and an important step towards fully funding the NEA at $1 per capita. Rebuilding the arts is key to rebuilding our economy.

@shakespearectr @augustahealth @SDC @ActorsEquity @SDCweb Unfortunately the email from your Managing Director was more #UnionBusting language. Our work is a partnership, not one you can just dismiss when one partner is not ready. That's why they call it a negotiation. Same question @SDCweb, you ok with this? #UnionStrong #EquityStrong

Guess I'm going to have to tell my parents that they and their friends won't be able to go to the shows anymore. #EquityStrong #UnionStrong

Alhambra Theatre & Dining (@alhambrajax) has decided to abandon their commitment to the members of Actors Equity and have instead decided to water down their health and safety standards by no longer using Actors’ Equity agreements. #SafetySpotlight

[Roy A. Gross @royagross]

Why is American Shakespeare Center (@shakespearectr) moving forward without a commitment to follow the health and safety recommendations to protect the audience and the workers shared by @DrDavidMichaels and @ActorsEquity? Profits over safety. #SafetySpotlight

[Roy A. Gross @royagross]

With more than 49,000 cases of COVID-19 in Florida over the past week, @Disney is still set on opening their parks with no testing available to their actors. By putting profits over safety, Disney puts workers and audiences at risk. #ProtectTheMagicMakers $DIS

SHAME: Today we put @TootsieMusical on the list of non-Equity tours. There’s no way to dress it up. Producers rescinded their union job offers and now Troika Entertainment is casting for a non-union tour of the exact same show. #AskifitsEquity https://t.co/OxaNh8itpU
