Thesea are union positions. With a little resesarch on their unions, you should be able to find out minimums at the least. Just remember, that every position is negotiated. The bigger your name & more your experience the higher your paycheck.


If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

The respective unions to look into are...

For music directors:
The American Federation of Musicians (http://www.afm.org/) is the overall union. If you want something more specific, try Local 802 (http://www.local802afm.org/), the NYC chapter, which enforces all union Broadway contracts. All Broadway musicians are members of the Local 802 AFM.

For directors:
The Stage Directors and Choreographers Society (http://www.sdcweb.org/) is the relevant union.

For stage managers:
Actors' Equity (http://www.actorsequity.org/), as it turns out, manages not just actors in theatre, but also stage managers.

Happy researching!
