Could you possibly phrase exactly what you're asking a little more clearly?

Posted: 1/11/11 at 4:21pmI think you might be able to get your equity card by performing at an official production of the Pittburgh CLO. But don't quote me.

"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

You must be a member of equity to work at CLO. If they choose to cast you and youre non-union, you automatically recieve an equity contract.
99.9% certain this is the case.

Posted: 1/12/11 at 1:49pmThe Pittsburgh CLO is a professional Equity company. It is preferable if selectees are union affiliated, but not essential. However, Actors’ Equity rules pertaining to use of local jobbers and non-professionals are carefully observed. All selected chorus members must join Actors’ Equity Association. Our agreement with AEA designates the use of non-pro's in small principal roles based on a ratio determined by the number of AEA members hired per show.

Posted: 1/12/11 at 1:57pmit'll always be situational, no hard and fast rules. Big surprise. It's THEATRE, not a trade union.
