Performance
Rights
Ultimately, plays are
meant to be seen and heard, and not just read. Consider performing this
play in your community. It has proven an effective means of
communicating the momentous and inspirational story of Mona's life to a
general audience.
IF YOU ARE
INTERESTED IN PERFORMING THE PLAY "A DRESS FOR MONA," YOU
MUST GET WRITTEN PERMISSION. We now offer a convenient
online application form. You may also download the one-page application as a
Word Document
(DOC) or as a
print-ready
(PDF) file, fill it out and send it to The Drama Circle by mail or email.
If you have trouble with the application, send an email to
info@dramacircle.org requesting help. Soon after your application is received,
you will receive word whether permission to perform is granted plus
details about rights and
royalties.
The play may also be presented as a
"reading," whether it be held in an auditorium or in one's living room.
For this you may not need anything more than some copies of the script and
some warm bodies. (Learn more
about readings.)
Q: Who needs to fill out the
application form?
A: Written permission is required for those who wish to perform
the play "A Dress for Mona," either in whole or in part.
Q: Do I need permission to
do a “reading”?
A: Readings of the play do not
require permission. A “reading” is here defined as an informal
presentation of the play with no more than two rehearsals and where no
money is charged for admission.
Q: What if I want to charge
money?
A: If money is charged for any
presentation of this play, then previous written permission is required.
Performances of this play that do not charge admission but which involve
more than two rehearsals also require permission.
Q: Should I contact you anyway if
I want to do a reading?
A: Sure! While you do not
need permission to give an informal reading of the play, we'd love to
hear about it!
