29hr reading - need an AEA SM?
« on: Jul 16, 2015, 08:00 pm »
As most of us know, the 29 hour reading guidelines are sorely lacking.  One major point I'm trying to clarify is if an AEA stage manager is required.  Under almost any other contract, if Equity actors are employed the SM must be under an Equity contract as well.  Can a company choose to schedule an intern or non-equity person to run the reading?

I believe a non-union SM would be allowed, but as with all AEA matters, it's best to call them for confirmation.
