Take this scenario: Say that a performer signs a contract to have a 6 month tenure in a show, but the show closes before the contract expires.
Does the actor or actress get paid a 6 months salary because of the contract, or are they only paid for the amount of time they actually performed.
I'm sure this falls under an Equity guideline, and I'm sure it is being experienced quite often on Broadway as of late.
I am just curious of how this type of situation is handled.
