Jessica Featherston, a professional lighting technician, was removed from the 2024 Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO) tour roster after reporting sexual harassment on the 2023 tour. During that tour, a biological male identifying as a woman, serving as a crew chief, used the women’s locker tooom and behaved inappropriately. When Ms. Featherston raised concerns about this, she was mocked by her own team.
Ms. Featherston formally reported the incident and was assured her job would be safe. Instead, she was quietly dropped from the next tour, while the offender faced no consequences.
America First Legal, together with the Independent Women’s Forum and Murphy Ball Stratton LLP is suing TSO and its partners for retaliating against Ms. Featherson and failing to protect her from workplace harassment.
