ACTORS AND DISNEY WORLD REACH DEAL AFTER VIRUS TESTING FIGHT

“As a reminder, testing is voluntary and Cast Members will not be paid for testing time,” the notice said.

Walt Disney World and the union for its actors and singers reached an agreement on Wednesday that will allow them to return to work, more than a month after they said they were locked out of the reopening of the theme park resort for publicly demanding coronavirus tests.

Disney agreed to have a state-run drive-thru COVID-19 testing site for workers and the public at the Florida theme park resort. That decision encouraged Actor’s Equity Association to sign a memorandum of understanding allowing the actors, singers and stage managers to return to their jobs.
