DRAMATISTS GUILD MARKETPLACE


GUILD STATEMENTS - WGA Strike
 
The Dramatists Guild of America, on behalf of our 6000 member playwrights and musical theater writers, offers our support to our colleagues at the Writers Guild of America in their effort to win a fair contract.
 
Producers need to remember that in the beginning was the word …not the download. And those who write the words are entitled to share in the revenues generated by their work, whether the source of the revenue is old or new.
 
Writing is a lonely profession, but writers are not alone when they stand together. And so we stand with the WGA, in solidarity, hoping for a quick and fair outcome that is responsive to the needs of the movie and television writers they represent.
