'''Equity''', formerly officially titled the '''British Actors' Equity Association''', is the [[trade union]] for actors, singers, models, performers, directors, choreographers, designers, stage managers, and other creative workers in the United Kingdom. It was formed by a group of [[West End, London|West End]] performers in 1930 and incorporated the [[Variety Artistes' Federation]] in 1967.

Equity incorporated the [[Variety Artistes' Federation]] in 1967, and now represents most professionals whose work is presented on stage or screen.
Equity was one of the last of the [[closed shop]] trade unions in the UK. This was criticised in 1981 and made illegal in 1988, resulting in it no longer being a requirement that an entertainment professional be a member of Equity; however, to join Equity in the present day, evidence of sufficient paid professional work must still be provided.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/stage/theatreblog/2010/sep/15/malcolm-sinclair-equity |location=London |work=[[The Guardian]] |agency=Theatre Blog |first=Laura |last=Barnett |title=Equity boss Malcolm Sinclair answers your questions |date=15 September 2010 |accessdate=29 June 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|url=http://www.catalystmedia.org.uk/issues/nerve2/equity.htm |title=Equity in the 21st Century |date=Summer 2003 |journal=Nerve |issue=2 |accessdate=29 June 2013 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120905062011/http://www.catalystmedia.org.uk/issues/nerve2/equity.htm |archivedate=5 September 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/980967.stm |title=More union trouble for Hurley |date=20 October 2000 |work=[[BBC News]] |accessdate=29 June 2013}}</ref> Equity requires its members to have unique [[stage name|professional names]] to avoid confusion with other performers.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.equity.org.uk/about/equity-name/ |title=Equity – Equity Name |publisher=Equity |accessdate=2 July 2018}}</ref>

They were advised by [[Robert Young (Islington North MP)|Robert Young]], the "Actors' MP".<ref>{{cite book |last1=Cochrane |first1=Claire |title=Twentieth-Century British Theatre : Industry, Art and Empire. |date=2011 |publisher=Cambridge University Press |location=Cambridge |isbn=9780521464888 |pages=78–79}}</ref> Like many other British trade unions, Equity operated a closed shop policy, so it was not possible for someone to join unless they had a record of sufficient paid work and most jobs were reserved for Equity card holders. To allow new members to join, there was a limited number of non-card holding jobs on regional productions. Whilst working on these productions, actors held a provisional membership card, and could apply for full membership on completing the requisite number of weeks, subsequently allowing them to work in the West End or on film and television.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Simkins |first1=Michael |author1-link=Michael Simkins |title=What's My Motivation? |date=2003 |publisher=Ebury Press |location=London |isbn=0091892295 |pages=69–70}}</ref>

Equity, formerly officially titled the British Actors' Equity Association, is the trade union for the performing arts and entertainment industries in the United Kingdom.

Formed by a group of West End performers in 1930, the union grew to include performers and stage management nationwide, as well as gaining recognition in audio, film, and television. Equity incorporated the Variety Artistes' Federation in 1967, and now represents most professionals whose work is presented on stage or screen.

As of 2021, it had just over 46,000 members, including actors, singers, dancers, variety artistes and other performers, models, theatre directors, choreographers, designers, and stage management.[2]

Equity requires its members to have unique professional names to avoid confusion with other artists and entertainers.[3]

History

[edit]

Equity was created in 1930 by a group of West End performers, including Godfrey Tearle, May Whitty and Ben Webster. They were advised by Robert Young, the "Actors' MP".[4] Like many other British trade unions, Equity operated a closed shop policy, so it was not possible for someone to join unless they had a record of sufficient paid work and most jobs were reserved for Equity card holders. To allow new members to join, there were a limited number of non-card-holding jobs on regional productions. While working on these productions, actors held a provisional membership card, and could apply for full membership upon completing the requisite number of weeks, subsequently allowing them to work in the West End or on film and television.[5]

As a result of reforms of trade unions by Margaret Thatcher's Conservative government and the introduction of European legislation, closed-shop unions became illegal in the UK and Equity discontinued their closed-shop policy in the 1980s. However, to join Equity in the present day, evidence of sufficient paid professional work must still be provided.[6] In 1976, Equity introduced a policy of refusing to sell programmes to the SABC, an action that led to a virtual ban of British television in apartheid-era South Africa, which was not lifted until 1993.[7]

The Clarence Derwent Awards are theatre awards given annually by Equity on Broadway in the US and Equity UK in London's West End.

In regard to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike, Equity released a statement: 'Equity stands full square behind our sister union..'[8]
