Off Broadway’s much-honored Atlantic Theater Company and the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees have reached a tentative agreement that could see the Atlantic become the first-ever not-for-profit theater company producing solely Off Broadway shows to have such a union agreement.

Atlantic Theater Company and The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) have reached a tentative agreement covering nearly one-hundred production workers employed by the company.

This would be the first Off-Broadway nonprofit theater company to have a union agreement covering production classifications.

The deal will be scrutinized by New York’s other Off Broadway theaters, which the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees has been working to unionize.
