THE THEATRE MUSICIANS ASSOCIATION The TMA - an official Player Conference of the American Federation of Musicians - is an organization that unites professional theatre musicians from all over the U.S. and Canada. The TMA deals with issues specific to one segment of the music community - in this case, theatre musicians - whether on Broadway, in other cities, or on tour. As theatre musicians, we are uniquely qualified to guide the Union in matters that pertain to us such as wages, working conditions, job security, and displacement by recordings. As such, we serve as an information network between theatre musicians and the Union, and among theatre musicians themselves. The TMA has held 16 International Conferences. We have members from more than 30 cities, and we continue to grow. We have chapters established in 8 cities (areas): Boston, Chicago, Northern California, Southern California, Detroit, Las Vegas, Phoenix & St. Louis. Our newsletter, The Pit Bulletin, contains itineraries and instrumentations of touring shows, contract information, news and articles of interest to theatre musicians everywhere. We look forward to having you join us and add your voice to those already working toward a better future for theatre musicians.
