Theater Cleaners Reach Deal for New Contract

Despite working in the backstage world of theater, there are still times where I am amazed when I hear about unions like porters and matrons. While I know that the cleaning of the theater is a job that someone has to do, I never realized that their was a full union just dealing with this aspect of theater. For some reason, I assumed that theaters just created contracts with local cleaning companies, rather then had a full union dedicated to this work. I guess this is just yet another theater job that most people never think about that if it did not exist would make theater a whole lot less enjoyable.
