Take Action: Tell the Atlantic Theater to Make a Fair Deal for Workers!

The production crew at the Atlantic Theater Company in New York City has been on strike since January 12 because management refuses to negotiate in good faith. Workers first unionized a full calendar year ago, and are fighting for their first contract.

Last month, when their bosses suddenly attempted to impose non-negotiable conditions and threatened to cancel upcoming shows, nearly 100 workers unanimously voted to authorize a strike in response. As Workers they’ve been clear on their priorities, including industry-standard wages, fair scheduling, and healthcare benefits for all employees. Unfortunately, they’ve now waited almost a month for the Atlantic Theater to provide a counterproposal.

Elected officials—including Congressman Jerry Nadler, Assemblymember Tony Simone, State Senate Labor Chair Jessica Ramos, and Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine—have already sounded off, calling on the Atlantic Theater to return to good-faith negotiations.  Click here to sign a petition and add your voice!
