“But, before the red light comes on in the underscoring music begins, I want to thank all the actors and actresses who I’ve worked with and loved watching them make a script or a score come alive and for sharing their talents and creativity to every performance. And a larger than life thank you to our union, for without it, we would not be here and just think for 100 years. “
