I don't know a DAMN thing about this play...
just wanted to say that JediMaster.... U've got alot of JUNK in that TRUNK... 
 Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

Did you have to buy the rights for it? Or did you get the blessing from the filmmakers? Or are you just hoping you won´t get sued? Just curious since I hate struggling with copyright issues myself. | |

The music is what made me fall in love with this play. It really has one of the best rock scores ever in musical theater!

I had to purchase the rights through the play publishing house, Dramatist Play Service. Its about $100 per perfromance. No way I was gonna risk getting sued! Most plays are published through either Dramatist or Samuel French. If you decide you want to do a play, I reccommend sending in a request for the rights well in advance of the production. Both publishing houses are notoriously slow to process your request (Sam French is actually the worst of the two. They've been known to take up to nine months to process a request). Since Hedwig was a play first, I did not have to deal with the filmmakers at all (other than John Cameron Mitchell and Stephen Trask, who also wrote the screenplay as well as the original stage production, published the show through dramatist). If you decide you want to adapt a film into play form, then you have to go through a much more drawn-out process of getting the rights of the original filmmakers. At one point, I considered doing a stage version of the Brian DePalma film The Phantom Of The Paradise, but scrapped it when I learned of all the red tape I would have to go through to make it legal. _____ [This message was edited Mon Mar 22 6:19:14 2004 by JediMaster]

Especially the part about you not having to buy the film rights since it was originally a play (I didn´t know that by the way). I suppose that legally speaking, you are working on the same terms as the filmmakers did. Everybody has to "go back to the source". Interesting also that it was less expensive for you to buy the rights than I thought it would be. Maybe it´s beacuse you don´t have to buy the rights to the performance (as you would have to if you would use Prince´s own recording of his song in a film, for example), but only to the material itself (comparable to if you would do your own cover version of the song and use it). That´s one of the advantages of stage plays, where every performance is new and in a way unique, I guess. In any case, good luck with the play! I loved the movie, so I´m sure it will be interesting on stage too. | |

Well, the both tell the same story, but in different ways. The film tells the story in a much more traditional film format, while the play is structured like a concert. Its as if you are seeing a performance of Hediwig and her band. In a way, they're like companion pieces to one another.
