The current productions of Grief Camp and I’m Assuming You Know David Greenspan at Atlantic Theater Company have been postponed due to an ongoing strike by the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) against the company. The union is seeking better wages, health benefits, and jurisdiction over more theaters.
Atlantic Theater Company has offered a 20% wage increase and other benefits as part of a good faith agreement, but IATSE believes this offer is unacceptable. The company is concerned that if the strike is successful, it could set a precedent for financial instability in Off-Broadway productions and lead to the demise of institutions like Atlantic.
Atlantic Theatre Company is pro-union and collaborates with other unions, but its main goal is to make the agreement financially sustainable for everyone involved. The company hopes that IATSE will reconsider its stance and work towards reaching a fair contract quickly.
