| I am not exactly sure of title $400K plus is given. It's the equivalent to CEO. Equity is a surprisingly small union and has an elected President and council. They alone should run the union If issues they can't handle arise they can hire legal advice. The USA does not pay a CEO to run it (Though currently that might not be so bad.) Issues are not voted on in secret. What can be brought up for discussion at membership is. How each council member votes on issues is now kept secret. Several emails were sent to the entire membership. Non of which offered the choice of keeping the name "Gypsy". All this back and forth emailing was done by a paid employee of actors Equity. Also many individual emails were replied to quite bluntly by an employee. "Time is money". A director friend (Who is a member of The Directors Guild) was upstate directing a show and began a conversation with a couple in a restaurant at dinner. They informed they were there for the weekend and had been sent by Equity to just make sure everything was okay at a local theater. Sorry I was never told the name of the theater. I hope this has been helpful. At least you did not turn my entire posting into a discussion of racism. I can see how some may take me to be a racist. I am not and am sorry I could not put my points across more clearly. |
