UK Theatre and Equity Commercial Theatre Agreement – COVID-19 Variation AgreementCovid-19 Variation Agreement • May 27th, 2020
Contract Type FiledMay 27th, 2020UK Theatre and Equity (the “Parties”) have worked together to build on the joint work undertaken to provide a framework for recovery by entering into a COVID-19 Variation (the “Variation”) to the current UK Theatre/Equity Commercial Theatre Agreement (the “CTA”). There are a raft of problems to resolve, particularly relating to touring, before producing can continue. This Variation recognises the additional difficulties of dealing with regional responses to COVID-19 with each venue being affected in multiple different ways as a result of venue, government or local restrictions. This makes planning and producing a consistent tour over a number of guaranteed weeks extraordinarily difficult.
