Service & Solidarity Spotlight: Cliff Divers and Other Entertainers at Casa Bonita Unionize
Working people across the United States regularly step up to help out our friends, neighbors and communities during these trying times. In our Service & Solidarity Spotlight series, we’ll showcase one of these stories every day. Here’s today’s story.
Workers at Casa Bonita voted to unionize with Actors’ Equity Association (Equity) and Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) Local 7. The workers, about 80 cliff divers, magicians, actors, puppeteers and others at the Lakewood, Colorado, Mexican eatery, are seeking to address pay and other concerns, such as insufficient training, scheduling and safety from “abusive patrons emboldened by alcohol.” The restaurant was recently bought by “South Park” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone.“IATSE Local 7 couldn’t be more humbled and thrilled by the incredible crew of Casa Bonita,” said Local 7 Business Agent Max Peterson. “The days and weeks leading up to this election have been an inspiring example of solidarity.…This result shows that the crew is ready for a brighter future through bargaining collectively to bring safety, security and lasting improvements to their workplace. We are excited to stand with and beside them as we prepare for and begin negotiations!”
