Congratulations to every single person connected to those productions! That number doesn't happen without a lot of people doing their jobs extremely well.

Oh, also, Liberation won the 2026 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Remarkable. Just wild.

And we're thrilled to welcome the celebrated revival of The Rocky Horror Show to the Checks & Balances family. Our clients aren’t dreaming it—they’re being it.

Looking ahead 

June's slate is stacked, and the sizzle of summer hasn't even hit yet. 

Honored to be part of the productions moving culture forward. Our clients do work that people talk about, share, and remember. We handle payroll and help facilitate compliance and workforce operations, so their back office runs smoothly.

We take that trust seriously on every single project. 

Proud of our clients. Grateful for the partnerships. Ready for what's next.
