The agreement is pending ratification and comes after the theater crew union warned of a potential strike. The previous contract had been in effect since July 2019, and while progress has been made on issues like health care and housing, there are still sticking points around wages and rest periods.

IATSE Theater Workers Vote to Authorize Strike on Pink Contract

The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) is conducting a strike authorization vote for workers on the pink contract, which covers stagehands, hair and make-up artists, and wardrobe personnel in the theater industry. Talks with the Broadway League and Disney Theatrical Productions have stalled, and if the vote is successful, workers could go on strike as early as Friday. The union is seeking better wages, benefits, and rights for its members. Progress has been made on healthcare and housing for touring crews, but issues remain regarding increased wages and rest periods.
