Please note that providing clearance for songs used in theatrical productions takes time. We recommend submitting your enquiry 8 weeks (with a minimum of 3 weeks) in advance of your event. If your theatrical event starts within 3 weeks of submitting your enquiry, please contact us.
APRA AMCOS does not control rights for dramatic context use in our music and only acts as agent for its members. Arrangements are therefore different to most other licences you may have obtained from us. It is important that you are aware that copyright ownership in a song and/or the position of the songwriter may change from time to time. This means previous approval for the same or a similar show does NOT guarantee that approval will be given again for any new application. Accordingly, APRA AMCOS notes that any financial or other investment in your show, including the booking of venues, ahead of you obtaining a licence for all the works is entirely at your own risk.
