| In this day and age with the internet and social media you have to be pretty stupid to make cuts or do anything that could get you flagged by the author or the company that represents the piece. Every contract I have signed to produce a show has very clear language about making changes or cuts to a play or musical and if you feel the need to do so there is a system to reach out to get permission from whoever owns the piece. I will also say that the internet has really helped the rights representatives stay on top of productions that have not paid for their rights or like the company in the article, make changes. Recently I saw a couple of shows announced in the area that were quickly taken down when it turned out they hadn't secured the rights. Foolish. |
