| Some regional theatres have resident actors signed to season contracts. Another model is the theatre+school or education component wherein the actors have non-acting functions included in their compensation to make it a (presumably not that high-paying) full time undertaking. I don't think the Pearl ever pretended to be a full time year round gig. In NYC, the other model is, I think, still (perhaps in some variation) involved at Atlantic, if nowhere else. |
