Uniting the workers that make Las Vegas the Entertainment Capital of the World

We are the performers, musicians, and crew who bring Las Vegas entertainment to life. As members of Actors’ Equity, IATSE, AGMA, and AFM, we are dedicated to fostering solidarity across the industry and supporting efforts to unionize productions and organize workers. Our goal is to amplify the voices and strengthen the collective power of the entertainment workers in our city, ensuring fair representation, higher pay, better working conditions, and a stronger voice for everyone in our community.

Our organizing style emphasizes equality, mutual aid, and shared decision-making. We operate without hierarchies or centralized leadership, believing that power and responsibility should be distributed among all members. This approach ensures that every voice is valued and that our actions reflect the collective will of the group.

Together, we’re organizing to create a more equitable and empowered future for the people behind the magic. 

Who We Are

What We’re Doing

Providing Emotional Support and Solidarity

  • We create safe spaces, both in-person and virtual, where workers can share their experiences, voice frustrations, and connect with others who share their goals. Solidarity grows when you know you’re not alone.

  • We introduce you to unionized workers in your field who can share their success stories and strategies. Hearing firsthand from others who’ve been in your shoes makes a difference.

  • We counter management’s hostility with positive messages that celebrate your collective power and remind you of the long-term benefits of unionizing.

Building Collective Confidence

  • We help organize group activities—like coordinated social media campaigns, signing public letters, and wearing matching shirts and buttons—to visually and publicly demonstrate unity.

  • We identify and support key influencers within your group, equipping them to inspire and motivate their peers.

  • Every milestone matters! We help recognize and celebrate achievements, like signing union authorization cards, to keep morale high and momentum strong.

Educating on the Benefits of Unionizing

  • We provide easy-to-understand flyers, videos, and infographics that explain the benefits of unionizing, including fair pay, better working conditions, healthcare, and job security.

  • We share real-world examples from workers in your industry who’ve successfully unionized and the ways it changed their lives for the better.

  • We host informational sessions led by union reps or labor lawyers to answer your questions and give you the knowledge to move forward confidently.

Offering Practical Resources

  • We connect you with labor lawyers or organizations that specialize in protecting workers’ rights, ensuring you have support to address any illegal union-busting activities.

  • If management retaliates with reduced hours, terminations, or other unfair actions, we provide access to resources, including emergency funds and networks of support.

  • We help you safely and confidentially report union-busting behavior to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).

Preparing You for Anti-Union Messaging

  • We address the common anti-union talking points often used by management and provide factual, easy-to-digest responses.

  • We make sure you understand your rights under the National Labor Relations Act, including your right to organize without retaliation. We also collaborate with legal experts and union reps to keep you informed.

  • We help you prepare for real-world scenarios by practicing how to respond to union-busting strategies, so you’re confident when facing management.

Staying Visible and Engaged

  • We attend rehearsals, performances, meetings, or gatherings to provide visible support and remind you that we’re standing with you every step of the way.

  • We stay in regular contact, offering updates, encouragement, and any resources you might need to keep moving forward.

Studying the past as we look to the future

Teaching and preserving the history of workers’ rights and labor activism is a key component of our mission. The struggles of workers, from the Haymarket martyrs and the Pullman Strike to the Bread and Roses Strike and the rise of the IWW, are more than just historical events—they are powerful reminders of the resilience, courage, and solidarity that define the labor movement. These moments illustrate the fight for fair wages, safe working conditions, and dignity on the job as not only economic battles but as acts of social justice rooted in class-consciousness. Understanding this history helps organizers see how workers have always been at the forefront of challenging inequality and oppression. By connecting our current struggles to these past victories, we strengthen the bridge between labor rights and broader movements for equity and justice. Teaching this history is essential to keeping the spirit of solidarity alive and ensuring that our fight for workers’ rights remains a powerful force for social change.

We know organizing can feel overwhelming, especially when management tries to sow doubt and fear. But we also know how powerful workers can be when they stand together. By offering emotional, educational, and logistical support, we help performers and stage workers stay united, confident, and prepared to vote “yes” when it’s time to make your voices heard.
