Hi John,

Imagine you are a musician on Broadway, looking forward to playing your 100th night in the orchestra of “Wicked”—but you are unexpectedly sick with a cough that makes it difficult to breathe, let alone play an instrument. You don’t have any remaining sick days, so you show up to work anyway, infecting not only your fellow musicians, actors and theater staff, but audience members as well.

For too long, Broadway workers have risked their health and safety so the show could go on. Show your support here. 

Actors’ Equity Association (Equity) and the American Federation of Musicians (AFM) Local 802 represent the actors, stage managers and musicians who bring Broadway productions to life. Equity currently represents 3,300 actors and stage managers and AFM Local 802 represents 1,300 musicians on Broadway. 

These actors, stage managers and musicians have been in negotiations with The Broadway League since August to improve their workplaces. Right now, they are demanding that they be treated with dignity and for The Broadway League to pay their fair share for health care.

Will you sign their letter to management demanding a healthier Broadway? Click here to add your support. 

These Broadway workers’ contracts have expired and negotiations have come to a standstill. But in the union, there is strength. 

Will you sign a letter to tell The Broadway League that you support the workers who make Broadway possible?

Thank you for standing with Broadway workers and all working people, each and every day.

In solidarity, 

Team AFL-CIO
