Broadway labor dispute is settled
- Share via
New York stagehands and theater producers reached an agreement on a contract Tuesday, avoiding the Broadway stage’s second labor disruption in less than two years.
Details weren’t immediately available. A union spokesman said the contract is similar to a three-year accord the union reached last month with the Nederlander Organization, which owns nine Broadway theaters. That agreement called for pay increases of 3% a year and greater benefits.
Stagehands move scenery within a theater and run sound and light boards. They include carpenters and electricians.
