It has happened again
Sun, 21 Nov 2010, 01:37 pmEvery now and again we have a week or two with very few shows, and then as if by magic, there are a dozen opening nights at once.
Can I suggest that as soon as a director or producer is thinking about putting on a production, that they enter the play's name with dates, in the 'What's on' section of this site - even if it is a year ahead. Just the Title and Dates, no venue, cast etc required, you will have pegged out your claim.
This entry, which can always be deleted later if necessary, allows others to see what is happening in the future and so help them spread the shows around. It also stops the same play being produced several times in a couple of months.
Thank you
Good point however...

If you want companies to start publicising programs before they are finalised, then you are effectively asking them to apply for rights and even hand over deposits for productions that by their own admission may, or may not go ahead, which is an unworkable situation." specifically...
This is very true, however, a company does not need to have secured rights to a play to plan WHEN they want to play it. It is entirely possible to post your seasons as "TO BE ANNOUNCED" with the dates...
