I have confirmation that several of the folk getting let go are on “run show” contracts. Hence AEA is involved. They indeed got fired

macbeth said: "What a feckless union Equity is to let a hit new Broadway show that's had steady grosses and (awesome cast) no big stars to fill the house. ie: the perfect touring show, right?
Nope, a Level 5 touring contract.
https://playbill.com/job/death-becomes-her-orlando-auditions/39d75640-8077-444f-8c2b-ed50b4b3dd9b"
The tour is gonna be Equity, the salary range is from Touring agreement and Full production because they are casting future replacements for both the tour and Broadway. Is listed as Non Union cause is an open call not an equity call
