STAGE LABOR

I.A.T.S.E.

The Paramount Theatre is contracted directly through the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, Moving Picture Technicians, Artists and Allied Crafts of the United State, Its Territories and Canada (I.A.T.S.E.) and Local 191.

The I.A.T.S.E. and local 191 are the contracted suppliers of stage labor for the Paramount Theatre for calls requiring over eight hands. The paramount Theatre house technical crew fills calls of eight or less stagehands. Both are paid at the same rates and minimums.

The Paramount Theatre reserves the right to set all staffing requirements for events. The Paramount Theatre will work closely with the Lessee to make sure both the facility and lessee's needs are met. The Paramount Theatre will be the sole provider of all stagehands.
