The Stage: Equity relaunches bid for regional pay hike
Equity has revived its bid for an across the board £400 a week minimum for actors and stage managers working in theatre outside the West End.
Earlier this month, commercial and independent theatre managements agreed new pay deals for actors and stage managers, which will raise the minimum to £400 from 2011.
These agreements mean subsidised venues using Theatrical Management Association contracts are now the only mainstream sector of the industry not currently committed to raising the minimum rate of pay to £400 or above. In 2008, the West End agreed to a minimum of between £450 and £600 a week.
