When a Starving Artist is Handed a Bummer.

Today, I was offered a summer gig: a witch in the "Scottish Play".

With a theatre company that I love.

In a city that I love.

And the gig would thereby give me six weeks with a boy and a dog that I love.

...But I was only offered it on the stipulation that I was still Non-Equity.

...

Ohhhh, the catch to being a Union-actress. 
Sad day.
