Williams performing in Branson, Missouri, October 2014 Actors ' Equity Association dispute In January 2001, Williams was fined $52,000 by Actors ' Equity Association, the union representing stage actors, for starring as Captain Von Trapp in a non-union tour of The Sound of Music. According to Variety, the production was picketed in several cities. Williams responded by filing a complaint with the National Labor Relations Board, arguing that the fine was illegal because he had resigned from the union in September 2000 before the tour began. Equity alleged that Williams, who joined the union in 1974, was still a member when he began contract negotiations for the role. Williams was reinstated by Actor 's Equity as a member in good standing in 2005 after he unionized a non-Equity production of A Christmas Carol in late 2004.
