Strike looms at Festival

Beacon Herald: On the eve of the Stratford Shakespeare Festival’s 60th season the theatre is on the verge of a labour dispute.
Fifty-three box office staff almost unanimously turned down the Festival’s latest contract offer Wednesday. Box office staff belong to IATSE (International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees) Local 357.
Box office staff, which includes the call centre, could be locked out or could go on strike anytime beginning Friday.
