Actors Equity Association is opening up new opportunities for Actors and Stage Managers alike. Membership has long been a coveted status requiring a certain number of hours of employment in an Equity house. That rule is being eliminated and individuals my now join join based on ANY professional experience i.e. work at any theatre for which they were compensated. Equity has seen quite a few changes in the recent years and flagging membership in locals being an important one. Often perceived as lacking in local interests by their locals it appears the national committee is working to boost membership. It will be interesting to see other changes as they begin to attempt to address issues that have developed such as pay equity between members and non-members and truly being an "industry" representative rather than just for members. <edit: adding this link to a full story at deadline.com>
