Artists deserve a place to call home. This morning at New York City Hall, Equity expressed our support of affordable housing for artists. “Actors need access to affordable places to live. To keep working actors in New York, we need smart public policy, like affordable artist housing.”

A Chorus Year continues 🎉 Equity celebrates the chorus workers who helped define Broadway’s rhythm—onstage and off. In the 1960s, their advocacy helped shape the rehearsal and performance standards we know today.

Today is #LatinaEqualPayDay, the day that Latina pay *finally* catches up to what White, non-Hispanic men made last year alone. That’s injustice—plain and simple. America’s unions are fighting to end the wage gap for good, and a union contract is how we level the playing field.

SAG-AFTRA supports the @actorsequity.bsky.social actors and stage managers fighting for a fair contract. It’s time for the employers to do their part to keep their Broadway workers healthy and make their careers sustainable. #EquityWorks #EquityStrong
