“I Was Never Asked For A Meeting …Not Without a Gun to my head.”
In an email circulated yesterday to members of Actors’ Equity from their executive the following claim is made:
“All NZ Equity sought was to meet with the production and discuss the conditions under which performers would be engaged….This request to meet was backed by the International Federation of Actors (FIA) and performers’ unions around the world including SAG and Equity UK. The request was in the first instance made privately, without the glare of the media on August 17. “
