The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan has rejected an appeal by Tony Award-winning producer Garth Drabinsky in a $50 million lawsuit claiming the Actors’ Equity Association, a union for actors and stage managers, blocked him from producing live Broadway shows.
The court ruled that Mr. Drabinsky, known for producing the Broadway show “Fosse,” could not continue with his $50 million lawsuit, which claimed the union violated antitrust and various state laws, including defamation.
