The members of the Council and the President are your voice in the union . Together they make crucial decisions about what the union does — for example, the contracts we agree with employers and the campaigns we run on behalf of members . The President, who is a full member of the Equity Council, presides over meetings of the Council, the annual conference and other union meetings . Two other key Equity committees are also being elected . The Appeals Committee hears appeals from members against disciplinary penalties imposed by the Council or against a decision not to call a Special Representative Conference requisitioned by members . The Standing Orders Committee arranges the business for the Equity Annual Representative Conference, which brings together representatives from across the union to make policy . Just like you, candidates in these elections are members of Equity . No member gets a salary for this — they give their time freely to improve the working lives of all Equity members . Show your support for your union — vote! — and make sure that you have your say in how your union is run over the next two years . Please read the candidates’ election statements, view the election videos at www equity. org. .uk/election-videos and make sure you get your vote in by noon on 4 July . And for those of you who are standing for election — thank you and good luck! Yours sincerely Christine Payne General Secretary 1 EQUITY PRESIDENT Maureen Beattie “Our core belief is in the power of the community to liberate and enhance the life of the individual ”. - that sums up Equity for me . I’ve been working as an actress and director for 44 years, I’ve been on Council for four years and am currently one of your two Vice-Presidents . I instigated and chaired Equity’s recent Sexual Harassment Working Group and saw at first hand just what we can achieve when we all come together for a common cause . We need to work much harder at communicating with our members, and we need to be much more public facing about our campaigns and achievements . The work that goes on behind the scenes at Equity is remarkable but we’ve been very slow to get our message out there . The Stage’s annual 100 List, which cites the one hundred most influential people/organisations in the © Caroline Webster © Caroline world of theatre, has never included Equity - an organisation that represents over 43,000 members! There is a great deal to be done but for me the dream is for every single one of Equity’s members to have as good a chance as any other to land that job - whatever it may be . Nominated by more than 40 members in benefit including: Jude Akuwudike Bryn Evans Polly Kemp Ann-Louise Ross Cindy-Jane Armbruster Daniel Evans Mary Lane Sophie Rubenstein Simon Russell Beale Peter Forbes Michael Mackenzie Lesley Sharp Giovanni Bienne Tamsin Greig Sandra Marvin Malcolm Sinclair Jonathan Broadbent Nicola Hawkins Stephen McGuire Maggie Steed Jo Cameron Brown Julie Hesmondhalgh Sheila Mitchell Summer Strallen Stephanie Cole Kobna Holdbrook-Smith Cyril Nri Thalissa Teixeira Charlotte Cornwell Isabella Jarrett Abiola Ogunbiyi Harriet Walter Alan Cumming Alex Jennings Siobhan Redmond Richard Wilson Lindsay Duncan Nicholas Keegan Lynda Rooke Nicholas Woodeson PLEASE NOTE: as there is only one candidate for President the candidate above is elected unopposed and her name does not appear on the ballot paper for a seat on the Council. 2 THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY BLANK 3 EQUITY COUNCIL — GENERAL LIST Gary Arthurs Joan Beveridge Proposed by Pete Ford, seconded by Sarah Lochlan Proposed by Jean Rogers, seconded by James Hamilton Welsh I have been a member of Equity since 1995, when I first started out as a variety My first job out of drama school, I co-founded SNAP TIE Theatre Company and artist .

  • Pentabus & Paines Plough Announce COME to WHERE I AM: RURAL
    Press Release Date: 9 July 2020 Pentabus & Paines Plough Announce COME TO WHERE I AM: RURAL Playwrights Leading new writing theatre companies Pentabus and Paines Plough today announce their eight COME TO WHERE I AM: RURAL writers. These writers have been commissioned to write a 5-10 minute play inspired by their own experience or perception of their rural environment. The writers are: Callum Beardmore, Olivia Bradbury, Jacob Hodgkinson , Natasha Marshall , Little John Nee, Tom Wentworth, Yasmin Wilde and Kat Woods. The plays will be released digitally on Wed 15 July and Wed 29 July 2020 on both companies’ websites and YouTube channels. Wednesday 15 July Jacob Hodgkinson – Roots Natasha Marshall – Crop Circle Tom Wentworth – No Place Kat Woods – Flat Wednesday 29 July Callum Beardmore – Youth’s Folly Olivia Bradbury – Walking with Mum Little John Nee – 2k from Killaloonty Yasmin Wilde - Monica As part of this project, Pentabus did an open call for writers from The Marches - Shropshire, Herefordshire and Mid-Wales. The two writers commissioned as part of this open call were Callum Beardmore and Olivia Bradbury. Both Callum and Tom Wentworth are alumni of Pentabus’ Young Writers’ Programme which has been running for seven years. All the plays have been given script development support and then the writers have filmed themselves, or their context, at home performing their own play. There will be a live performed reading of the plays at Pentabus HQ when it is appropriate to schedule this. For groups who may find it more difficult or even impossible to access digital content, there is the offer of a caller service – live readings of the plays over the phone, allowing people with little or no online access to experience these plays.
