I work as the ME for a local theatre company here in the city, and I haven't been paid in 2 shows (about 5 months), and have almost $500 collecting interest on my credit card. In total I'm owed about $1450. They also haven't paid my crews from the previous two shows. We're the low men/women on the totem pole atm and I need to propel us to the top. My friend who also works as an ME suggested threatening to disable their lighting system in a way that no one could figure out how to fix. He recommended removing the dimmer module, but I'm not 100% sure how that's done. The dimmers are 3 ETC 24 2.4kw edison sensor racks using single phase power from 2 200 amp disconnects. DMX controlled via ETC express 196 channel board.
If anyone has any recommendations about either how removing the dimmer module is done, or about how to get them to pay my crew and I for at least the money that's chilling on my credit card (I know they are making at least some money from the show that's running right now and the previous show), I'd really appreciate it. Thanks so much!
