| From the Forbes story about the short-term memorandum: ''Each actor would be paid $2,323 during each week of rehearsals & performances, as well as receive a media fee of $58.08 and a “1 Year Rider” of $80.'' I admit I don't know anything about media fees. How do they work? Are they standard in Broadway agreements? And why a ''1 Year Rider''? Thanks! |

| The Production contract provides that each actor shall receive a separate Media Fee equal to 2.5% of minimum salary, no matter what their contractual salary is. This allows producers to use any B Roll etc on various platforms. | |

| It's true we were fired It's true we were dumped It's true that it came down to bucks It's one of those setups that really blows Yes that memo was useless, this whole thing sucks So we got a lawsuit Our lawyers are tops But still these producers are shrewd We paid a retainer But nothing is plainer Than, we're screwed We're screwed Yes, we're screwed (blued and tattooed)!!! |

| ''The Music Man'' wants to pay $10,000 each to the quartet members to go away, but they're seeking damages of over $500,000. Quartet sings to producers: ''Pick a little, talk a little, pick a little, talk a little. Cheap. Cheap. Cheap. Talk a lot, pick a little more ...'' |
