WRITE AID - A Benefit Concert to Provide Assistance to
Industry Employees Affected by the WGA Strike

Friday, December 14 at 8
p.m.

Performers currently scheduled:

Eddie Izzard, Lewis
Black, Patton Oswalt, Sarah Silverman & Tenacious D (featuring Jack Black &
Kyle Gass)

ONE NIGHT ONLY!
ROYCE HALL at UCLA

Tickets
- $75 per person. Tickets can be purchased by visiting www.UCLALive.org or
calling (310) 825-2101 or Ticketmaster.

Tickets also
available in person at the UCLA Central Ticket Office (Southwest corner of the
James West Alumni Center and at all Ticketmaster Outlets.)

Write
Aid is presented by members of the Writers Guild of America West, the Screen
Actors Guild and West Beth Entertainment. Hosted by the WGA Black Writers
Committee, everyone is welcome to join. Remember, it's our differences that
make our guilds strong, so come out to show your support.

The
idea originated with the United Showrunners Committee who wanted a way to
reach out to the Industry community during the strike. Dawn and Nicole,
Executive Producers of “The Riches” approached star Eddie Izzard.

“I
wanted to help because the WGA struggle is in the same area as the SAG
struggle will be in a few months time.” Izzard said. “We will also be
negotiating over Internet residuals, so doing the benefit seemed like a good
way of helping out and showing solidarity.”

REMINDER:

Please
stay at studio locations, and do not join picketers at on-location sites.
Screen Actors Guild is not condoning or participating in disruption and/or
attempts to shut down location shoots.

It is critical that
SAG picket signs not be displayed at any locations other than the appropriate
sites at the studios and networks.

If you are contracted to
work on a television series or motion picture that continues to produce while
the WGA is on strike, you are obligated by your personal service agreement and
the “No Strike” clause in our collective bargaining agreements to go to work.
You can continue to audition for work and accept new work if you choose to do
so.

Screen Actors Guild members should not perform the
duties covered by WGA contracts. Simply stated, you should not write anything
normally written by striking WGA writers.

Finally, and most
importantly, we must support our fellow SAG members on every set even if they
have to cross a picket line to get to work. They are simply following the
advice of their union and honoring their contract. It is not reasonable to
expect SAG cast members to risk the potentially enormous personal liability
that may flow from refusing to work in the absence of a SAG strike. Please
note, the WGA contract includes a similar “No Strike” clause and writers would
be bound to the same rules as you are if another union were striking.

IMPORTANT
NOTE:
We have also set up a toll-free Screen Actors Guild WGA strike
information hotline number for questions regarding work rules and picket line
locations. Through this hotline number, you can get up-to-the-minute
information on work rules, picket line locations and help with other questions.

Screen
Actors Guild WGA Strike Information Hotline: 1-877-724-7875.

and the WGA strike or for a copy of the National Board resolution in support
