WHEREAS
Blue Man Group continues to refuse to bargain with any trade
union in North America; and
WHEREAS
we recognize and commend the creation of a historic coalition
consisting of
Canadian Actor's Equity Association (CAEA), the Toronto Musicians'
Association,
Local 149 American Federation of Musicians (AFM), and Locals
58 and 822 of the
International Alliance of Theatrical and Stage Employees (IATSE),
in response to Blue
Man Group's new non-union production in Toronto; and
WHEREAS
the American Federation of Musicians of the United State and
Canada has placed Blue Man Group on its International Unfair
List, and Screen Actors Guild has formally asked its members
not to audition for or accept work from the Blue Man Group;
and
WHEREAS
every major theatrical producer in Toronto adheres to agreements
with CAEA, AFM Local 149, and IATSE Locals 58 and 822; therefore
BE
IT RESOLVED that the Hawai'i State AFL-CIO unequivocally
supports and endorses the solidarity between CAEA, AFM, and
IATSE, as demonstrated in Toronto, and calls on all members
of its affiliates to refuse to attend any production of Blue
Man Group in North America; and
BE
IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Hawai'i State AFL-CIO calls
on all its affiliates and non-affiliates to support and sustain
this boycott until Blue Man Group bargains agreements with
unions across North America.
Adopted
by the Hawaii State AFL-CIO Executive Board on August 11,
2005.
