Hi There, I am new to the industry and wish to direct a musical in 2011 after I complete management studies in 2010. I will be focusing on theatre management. How ever I understand that its necessary to gain royalty or rights to proceed with the musical. Could anybody tell me who I would have to contact to ensure my musical will be legal. Kind Regards Megz

I love how you agree with me and yet insist on being difficult and disagreeable - I agree with your now familiar signature, and enjoy stirring you just as much as you stir everyone else. A troll's troll I must be. For those who give a shit: Um, that's irrelevant about putting little copyright symbols on everything. Copyright is automatically given to the writer; it is NOT necessary to put a copyright notice on it. It's common sense to do so only because people are ignorant either about copyrights in general or ignore them; and by adding one it clearly denotes what exactly the author/whoever is allowing the work to be used for (ie. creative commons attribution only, full copyright, etc). At any rate, such copyright markings are often ignored, cut away (in the case of digital images for example) or even copied themselves (many web designers don't even bother to change the copyright info in the code they've stolen).
