The Buena Park castle joins its sister location in New Jersey as the second to unionize.
The show performers and stable hands at Medieval Times in Buena Park voted 27 to 18 on Thursday to unionize, becoming the second castle in the dinner theater show chain to do so.
The unit will include knights, squires, stable hands and show cast members, including queens, Lord Cedric the lord chancellor, the lord marshal and trumpet players.The employees will be represented by the American Guild of Variety Artists, the same union that represents the New Jersey location, which unionized in July.
The union said the contract will ensure pay commensurate with experience level, will improve and enforce safety protocols and create a more “respectful working environment” at the castle.When your polling place is a dungeon: Medieval Times workers vote on unionizing The drive to unionize at the Buena Park castle came after the worst of the pandemic. Although the castle still closes on Mondays due to the pandemic’s effect on staffing levels, it can run multiple shows a day, particularly during weekends and the show’s busy holiday season.
