If the title is available for the dates indicated on the application, fees are quoted and a license is generated. A royalty fee is due whenever a play is presented in front of an audience- whether an admission is charged or not. This includes classroom presentations, benefits, or private shows. The fact that a performance is a free or benefit performances is taken into account when fees are quoted. The standard rental time is two months prior to your initial performance.
Additional fees apply for each additional rental week.
Once MTI has received your signed contract and the appropriate fees and deposit, rehearsal materials are scheduled for shipment. Materials are normally shipped about two months before your first performance. Remember, an MTI performance license is only valid for six weeks after the date of issue. To secure the performance rights you desire, you must return the license, signed and with payment within that time period. If it is not returned as outlined above, show availability and the fees quoted may be withdrawn.
