Equity Card

Equity Card

An Equity Card is proof of membership in an organization of stage actors such as the Actors' Equity Association of the United States or the British Equity. For some exclusive clubs catering to show-business types, the card can be used to prove that they are indeed the actor and not some look-alike imposter.

According to the BBC website, the children who sang on Pink Floyd's number one hit "Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)" couldn't appear in the video because they didn't hold Equity cards [ [http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/magazinemonitor/index.html#a018300 BBC News Magazine] ] .
