Kate Shindle, who has served as president of Actors’ Equity Association for nine years, is stepping down after a tenure dominated by the coronavirus pandemic that for a time idled all of the labor union’s members. Shindle, 47, said she expected to remain active in the labor movement, but that she was eager to resume working as an actor. The Equity presidency, leading a union that represents more than 51,000 theater actors and stage managers nationwide, is an unpaid, volunteer position. Because of the time required to manage the crises facing the union’s members, Shindle has worked so little as an actor that she hasn’t even qualified for her own union’s health insurance coverage. I’ve never been one who wanted to stay until the members threw me out.”

Vampires were very real to people in the past, but there are many ways science can explain their characteristics, whether they come from folklore or fiction. But many modern notions of vampires started with the 1700s media frenzy and continued with "Dracula" and other tales. "It's not like a vampire disease where people are wandering the earth for years and years getting to look more and more like vampires," he said.

As scientists began to learn and understand more about the body and death, stories about vampires started to evolve.

CNN —New York City’s Broadway theaters plan to dim the lights on Saturday evening in tribute to the late actress Angela Lansbury, who died this week. The Committee of Theatre Owners will dim the lights for one minute at 7:45 p.m. in her honor, the Broadway League said in a statement. Not yet 20 years old, Lansbury garnered her first Oscar nomination for her movie debut in “Gaslight” in 1944. She also accepted an honorary Oscar in 2013 and amassed 11 Emmy nominations for her role as Jessica Fletcher in “Murder, She Wrote,” but never won. She also hosted or co-hosted the Tony Awards five times, more than any other individual.
The University of North Carolina at Charlotte has apologized after a video was posted online showing a Sikh student who was handcuffed for carrying a kirpan, a religious article that resembles a knife. “Further investigation showed the item was a kirpan, an article of faith in Sikhism.”Video of the incident was posted on the Twitter account @thatsamaan, and its user identified himself as the student in question. You want me to take the whole thing off?” the student asked. The police officer told the student to stand up and the student asked, “What are you doing to me, bro?” before the officer told him he was being detained. The Twitter user tweeted on Saturday that he did receive his kirpan back.

Biletele pentru spectacolele de pe Broadway vor fi puse în vânzare în această săptămână, deşi reprezentaţiile nu vor fi reluate până pe 14 septembrie, informează BBC.Teatrele newyorkeze vor putea funcţiona atunci la 100% din capacitate, a anunţat guvernatorul statului New York, Andrew Cuomo, scrie agerpres.ro Mii de persoane şi-au pierdut locurile de muncă odată cu închiderea teatrelor de pe Broadway în martie 2020 din cauza pandemiei de coronavirus. "Broadway este o parte importantă a identităţii şi economiei statului nostru şi suntem încântaţi că vor fi ridicate din nou cortinele", a declarat Andrew Cuomo pe Twitter.New York-ul intenţionează să renunţe la majoritatea restricţiilor impuse ca urmare a pandemiei la sfârşitul acestei luni, însă teatrele de pe Broadway au nevoie de mai mult timp pentru repetiţii, iar producătorii de mai mult timp pentru a face publicitate spectacolelor. "Repornirea Broadway-ul este un demers complex", a declarat Charlotte St Martin, preşedinta Ligii Broadway, o organizaţie profesională care reprezintă producători, proprietari şi manageri de teatru, pentru agenţia de presă Reuters. Unele producţii, inclusiv "Mean Girls" şi "Frozen", nu vor mai reveni după redeschiderea teatrelor newyorkeze.Broadway-ul susţine peste 96.000 de locuri de muncă în New York şi a contribuit cu aproape 15 miliarde de dolari la economia oraşului în 2019, potrivit Ligii Broadway. Acea sumă nu ia în considerare doar vânzările de bilete, ci şi investiţiile necesare pentru a monta şi susţine un spectacol, precum şi banii pe care turiştii îi cheltuiesc atunci când vin la New York pentru a vedea o reprezentaţie.
