Steven Spielberg's adaptation of West Side Story-in theaters now-features actress Rita Moreno, who played Anita in the original 1961 film. Hear her discuss the original with Studs Terkel in 1962. studsterkel.wfmt.com/program…
WORKING IN DC supports you @SBWorkersUnited !
Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson made $14,665,575 last year. Average pay for Starbucks workers is $14 per hour, or $28,000 a year.
Congratulations to @SBWorkersUnited on your union vote. You deserve a raise.

We are fighting to ensure that the most powerful media corporations on the planet treat the film and tv workers who produce their content with basic human dignity.
RT if you stand with us in this fight.

Thanks to all who came to @WorkingDc Saturday night to show their support of workers and the arts community! Great job by Shanara Gabrielle and all the organizers of this event.

It was invigorating to sit in front of the @AFLCIO and watch a show that lifts up the average working person via monologues from Studs Terkel’s book, “Working.” This wonderful musical @WorkingDc is just the right dose of songs, solidarity & collective effervescence that we need.

I was walking down 16th street and I spotted the @AmericanU @humanitiestruck at @WorkingDc. Love how AU contributes to Washington!
It’s NOVA Labor Night at this "upbeat musical being given an exultantly excellent production outdoors on Black Lives Matter Plaza" Can't wait to be joined by @FlyingWithSara and @va_labor to honor @DonBeyerVA! Celebrating #arts #culture #laborjustice & #joy tonight at BLM Plaza!
“As one character says during the show: “History is a hell of a lot of little people getting together and deciding they want a better life.” The entire entertaining evening was a vivid dramatization of that point. DON’T MISS IT.” - @dcmetrotheaterarts

“An elder care worker and a nanny sing a moving song together that resonates with parallel human dependency in infancy and old age.” - @DCMTheaterArts
