LA THEATRE TOWN HALL on MONDAY 8/22 at 7:30pm
A town hall event will be held at the Los Angeles Theatre Center (LATC) for members of the greater Los Angeles theatre community next Monday, August 22, from 7:30?9:30pm. The purpose of the meeting is to examine the real-life consequences on LA's cultural ecosystem when Actors' Equity Association's new plan (which will eliminate the 99-Seat Plan) is put into place on December 14, 2016.
LA Stage Alliance Executive Director Steven Leigh Morris said, "We recognize this as a critical time for many of our 99-seat members and colleagues, and it's our priority to provide them with the platform to convene and disperse information as needed." He continued, "This is not a rally for or against any group's agenda, but a conversation in search of a fruitful outcome to this dispute that takes all interests into account."
Community members including Tom Buderwitz, Gary Grossman, Armina LaManna, Rebecca Metz, Larry Poindexter, Michael Shepperd, and Vanessa Stewart will lead the conversation and will present an alternative proposal to Equity's plan for consideration by the rest of the community.
This town hall is made possible in part by a grant from the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, the Center for Cultural Innovation, and other funders.
LATC is located at 514 S. Spring Street in downtown Los Angeles. Attendance is free, but RSVPs are required. RSVP at lastagealliance.com/calendar.
