Notes from the Field: A Frank Conversation on Pay Equity in the American Theatre

Monday May 6, 2024
2pm-3:30pm ET

Format: Online Only
Location: Streaming on HowlRound 

This panel brings together a national group of advocates who are provoking conversations around the need for more equitable pay structures in our field. Join us as we engage in the difficult conversations: What does it take for a theatrical worker to make a living in 2024? What progress has been made? Where can we go from here? What experiments in pay structures and ways of working have met success? We invite all A.R.T./New York individual members and organizational member contacts to witness this robust conversation and listen for ways to support a vibrant, diverse theatrical workforce. 

Panelists:
Brídín Clements Cotton & Natalie Robin, Co-Authors of Theatre Work: Reimagining the Labor of Theatrical Production
Elsa Hiltner from On Our Team
Daniel Park from Obvious Agency
