Producing Theatre: A Comprehensive Legal and Business Guide (Limelight") (3RD)

Theatrical attorney Farber explains the legal and business issues involved in producing for the theatre. Fourteen chapters address such topics as obtaining performance rights, finding investors, and negotiating with unions. A number of sample legal forms and contracts are provided in the appendix, which accounts for more than half of the volume. Included are a Literary Purchase Agreement, an Approved Production Contract for Musical Plays, and a Preliminary Offering Circular, among others.
