Actors at American Girl Place Vote for Equity - Again !

For the second time in just over a year, the adult actors and assistant stage managers at American Girl Place in New York City have voted for Equity representation. The vote - nine in favor of Equity, six against - was counted on Saturday, December 1, 2007.

"After 18 months of campaigning; two petitions-one verified by an independent arbitrator; one Unfair Labor Practice strike; one letter from the Actors signed by name, and two elections, the Actors and Assistant Stage Managers have chosen Equity again," said Flora Stamatiades, National Director, Organizing & Special Projects. .

"We are looking forward to sitting down at the bargaining table and swiftly completing our negotiations," said Ms. Stamatiades.
