IMPORTANT INFO:
Information sent via this page will be
kept confidential.
Licensing request does not guarantee
your ability to produce your desired title.
Enough print edition scripts for your
cast and crew are required before licensing is secured. Digital editions
do not qualify. Scripts may be purchased from OWP or Amazon. If
purchased via Amazon an email copy of the receipt is sufficient. (FOR PRODUCERS OUTSIDE THE U.S. - Must use Amazon to acquire print scripts, as OWP no longer ships international due to high shipping costs.)
Production rights must be secured well
in advance of production. (4 weeks is ideal)
Producing an OWP title without
permission indicates complete acceptance of Original Works Publishing's terms
and rates for production. Those discovered producing any title in the OWP
catalog without permission are subject to a large fine for each performance in
addition to the normal production fee. Failure to immediately remit
payment of fines and fees will result in prosecution.
FOR STUDENTS: Original Works does not charge
licensing fees for monologues or scenes used at Thespian Festivals, ACTF,
Forensics and Debate tournaments. We are on the "Approved Publishers" list for the Thespy Awards.
