BROADWAY STAGEHANDS, THEATER PRODUCERS REACH DEAL
November 28, 2007 - 7:53 pm
NEW YORK (AP) — Broadway stagehands and theater producers reached a tentative agreement Wednesday night to end a strike that has shut down more than two dozen plays and musicals for more than two weeks.
The settlement came after two days of marathon, all-night sessions and months of negotiation between Local 1 and the League of American Theatres and Producers. The walkout, which began Nov. 10, has cost the city and theaters millions of dollars in lost income.
