Performing arts unions and guilds list
« on: Dec 08, 2008, 11:42 pm »
I'm working on some new features for the site and was hoping that the group mind of SMNet could help me generate a list of performing arts unions and guilds worldwide. 

I'm especially interested in guilds for countries other than the US, although any and all will be useful.

Not sure how far afield you want to go with this, but:

Association of Theatrical Press Agents and Managers (ATPAM)
Dramatist's Guild
American Federation of Musicians (AFM)
The Broadway League (formerly The League of American Theatres and Producers)

and

League of Resident Theatres (LORT).
