No Broadway Strike!

Whew! Strike averted!

Broadway actors and the league of producers reached a tentative agreement on Wednesday for a new contract.

A rep for the suits said:

The collaborative spirit that prevailed throughout the talks allowed both sides to present their issues, understand the others’ concerns and negotiate a new contract that serves the industry and the theater-going public. We resolved a number of important issues and Broadway and touring Broadway are stronger for it. We were encouraged by the process and are delighted by the result.

An actors rep said:

In two months of tough bargaining, we achieved an excellent contract with significant gains for every Equity member working on Broadway and the road. Together, actors and producers worked tirelessly to craft an agreement that grows our business and takes care of our community and our audiences. It is this same kind of creative partnership and innovative approach that imbues Broadway and touring productions with the magic that is live theater.

We're glad that the shows will go on!

Broadway 4eva!

      last week i stayed at the apartment complex that mario lives in on browdway, and i worked out with him and the other actor in this photo in the building's gym. we watched living lohan… they wanted to look they're best before that evenings show, and they most definitely did.

      ps- the greatest show on Broadway way though is SPRING AWAKENING!!!! EVERYONE HAS TO SEE IT!!!!! best show in years!!!!!!

      In a way I feel bad for him, he is obviously gay. Not that he acts it, or sounds it, but you just know he is. I guess he has to put on this front. If his stays on Broadway he really won't have to. That place is packed with them. It's almost normal.

      Broadway is for fags!! Ohh and thanks Perez for helping me get closer to getting a million friends in myspace, you freakin' homo!!

      Everyone else should check out my new music. It's very inspirational!!

    23. PEREZ says – reply to this


      23

      WHY DOES PEREZ FILTER ALL OF THE COMMENTS IN ALL OF HIS OWN AND ALL OF HIS ANGELINA JOLIE POSTS?? (AND SEEMINGLY NOT ANY OF THE OTHERS??)

      COULD IT BE THAT BRAD AND ANGELINA PAY HIS FAT ASS TO FILTER OUT NAGATIVE COMMENTS AND TRY HIS PATHETIC BEST TO KEEP THEM UP ON A "PEDESTAL"? AND COULD IT BE THAT PEREZ IS A FOOL WITH NO SELF-ESTEEM AND CAN'T STAND IT WHEN PPL POST NEGATIVE STUFF ABOUT HIM?? I THINK SO! PEREZ IS A FAT DUMBASS! AND ANGELINA JOLIE AND BRAD PITT ARE FUCKING WANKERS WHO CAN'T DEAL WITH CRITICISM, THOSE PUSSIES!

      FREEDOM OF SPEECH!

      Perez loves this guy. Like you thought broadway was exciting and fabulous. YOu should have seen Slater when he was in freeze frame and Zack was giving a speech about not being "pinned" down," and then ACTION, and than , what, Slater loses? Hell no, he gives him a big shoulder pull full around flip onto the map and then a big pin dummy? Come on, it's cute dimply hot great wrestler Slates, what the hell did you think was going to happen?
