Caesars Palace Times Square plans to host monthly job fairs for Broadway actors and musicians if its casino proposal is approved. The casino aims to provide jobs such as table games dealers and bartenders, with flexible hours to accommodate performance schedules. The casino's initiative is supported by Actors' Equity Association and Local 802, addressing the challenges faced by performers in securing steady employment. Additionally, the casino intends to invest in the theater district, providing funding for workforce needs and public safety.
"Too often, actors and stage managers are forced to piece together work just to survive between productions. This collaboration with Caesars Palace Times Square creates new opportunities for our members to support themselves without leaving their professional community."
"The casino's project serves as a broader investment for the theater district, including direct funding for Broadway workforce needs like childcare, medical and student debt relief, and ticket access for underserved audiences."
