I have gone round and round on this. I belive the Union(s) is good for "high end" productions, like large touring shows, actual Broadway , etc. As for Local and Regional productions I dont think they have a place. The rules of the Unions, work well for shows with a large contingent of techs become a true hinderence with smaller productions, theatres, and companies.
Interesting...never realized the costumers unions were so spread out...is it like that in other tech areas?
ReplyDeleteCool- neat info...I can use that in my INTRO TO THEATRE class design unit!
