#RedAlert Day of Action, Sep. 1st

On Tuesday, September 1st, 2020, #WeMakeEvents, a coalition of trade bodies, businesses, unions, and live events workers, will light up their venues, homes, and cities red in over 1,500 locations across North America to raise public and media awareness in support of the live events sector.


Through this campaign, we can reaffirm the call for Congress to extend the now expired $600 weekly federal supplement to state unemployment insurance benefits – the most critical priority of IATSE workers during this ongoing pandemic. Direct relief for displaced entertainment workers is paramount. We also agree with the intent of the RESTART Act which, with adequate labor protections, would provide economic support to our employers in live events to endure this health crisis and get people back to work when it is safe to do so. Will you join us?

IATSE COVID-19 Reopening Guidelines

  The Stagecraft Department Safety Committee after thorough research, discussion, and review has now compiled a set of guidelines for reopening live events and working safely in shops. The guidelines are in 2 formats:

  

  1. A pdf of a word document which includes: 
    1. The overall guidelines
    2. A  condensed review of the guidelines for reference
    3. Craft specific guidance.
  2. A booklet of the over the overall guidelines.


 As states, provinces and communities move individually to reopening and returning to work, it is essential that IATSE locals have consistent, science-based guidance on how    

to ensure their members are returning to work under the safest possible conditions. This plan was developed through a review of various industry stakeholder guidance strategies, governmental agency advice, and the observations and recommendations of local union leaders in each of the crafts represented within the Stagecraft Department (Stage, Wardrobe, Makeup & Hair, Treasurers and Ticket Sellers, Ushers, etc.).

This information is designed as a service to IATSE Locals, their Members, and Employers and is intended only to provide general information on the subject covered and not as a comprehensive or exhaustive treatment of that subject, legal advice or a legal opinion. The aforementioned are advised to consult with legal counsel and other professionals with respect to the application of the subject covered to any specific production or other factual situation.

As information and research change regarding the COVID-19 virus while working in live entertainment, these guidelines will also be edited or updated as necessary.

Save Our Stages

 The Broward Center has joined a growing national coalition to advocate for government support for live music venues across the country.  We need your help to contact our elected officials and let them know this legislation matters to us.


All of the members of this coalition, including  performing arts centers as well as artists across the country, are getting behind legislation that has been introduced in the U.S. Senate called the SAVE OUR STAGES ACT, which would offer financial relief to the live entertainment sector including our venues.


You can help us seek federal assistance by contacting your elected officials in the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives to show your support for this legislation. Senator Marco Rubio chairs the Small Business Committee in the Senate and is a key player in advancing this issue. He needs to hear from all of us.


There's a quick and easy way to reach your elected officials in less than a minute at www.saveourstages.com. It’s simple to share our message, as the the letter is already pre-populated when you click the link.
