Guthrie Theater to offer free classes at libraries

The Hennepin County Library and the Guthrie Theater are partnering to bring theater classes to local libraries.

Starting in March, theater professionals will present classes on such topics as storytelling, stage combat, Shakespeare, and games actors play to warm up for a rehearsal.

Registration is both required and limited, with registration for some classes begins in February. The classes are funded with money from Minnesota's Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.

What I want to know is, are the actors being paid union wages?
