Brilliant message here from an anonymous comrade, truer words never spoken about ticket prices! 💜
After impassioned speeches from #JodieComer & @ChrisBushWrites at the #OlivierAwards on Sunday night, Nicky Campbell’s phone in this morning was about Theatre ticket prices. An anonoymous West End Stage Manager texted in. Sound ON 🔊 #StandUpFor17

The Council (the union's governing body) has been reviewing the union's rules and they are ready to put forward a new rulebook. Their key aim is to make the union’s current rules and practices more accessible and easier to understand, along with making some limited changes.

The rules are set by you, the members. Later this year there will be a referendum of the entire membership to decide whether to accept the new rulebook. Before that, there will be a series of open meetings for members to share their thoughts and suggestions with Council.
