In labor news, members of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, or IATSE, are voting this week to authorize a strike that could see Broadway and touring shows halted by the end of the week.

Contract negotiations have stalled as workers fight for better healthcare, wages, and housing for touring crews.
