Dance unions, like the American Guild of Musical Artists (AGMA), provide safety and protections for dancers. While helpful in resolving issues with management and negotiating contracts, they can also impose restrictions that limit artistic liberty and financial success for a company. Listen in this week as your host discusses the upsides and downfalls of dancing for a unionized company.
