Broadway Musical ‘Here Lies Love’ Reaches Agreement to Use Live Musicians After Objection

Producers of Here Lies Love have reached an agreement with Local 802 over the use of pre-recorded music in the show.
The musical will now use 12 musicians, including three actor-musicians, who are all Local 802 members.
The show was previously performed to a pre-recorded track, but the union had strongly objected to the lack of live music.
The production has pushed back on the union's statement, saying the musical has always included three actor-musicians.
The show will begin at the Broadway Theatre on June 17 with live music.
