Incidental Music

Permission must be sought for copyrighted music used in the performance of plays licensed by Dramatists Play Service, Inc. unless performance rights have been cleared or the music has entered the public domain. Although there is no central clearinghouse for music rights, information and rights may often be obtained through ASCAP (The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers), BMI (Broadcast Music, Inc.) or Warner Chappell Music.

Music CDs as well as sheet music are available from the Play Service for the following titles. Please note additional performance fees as applicable. You are required to apply for a license before you use any of the CDs or sheet music below that list per performance fees. Those without per peformance fees do not require a supplmentary production materials license for use with your production.

It is strongly recommended that you apply for a supplementary production materials license after you have received a license to produce the associated play. To apply for a supplementary materials license, use the Application for Nonprofessional Supplementary Production Materials Performance Rights, and to purchase the CD or sheet music, use the links below.

Music and/or sound effects for many DPS plays are also available from Valentino Production Music, Inc. Click on Sound Effects for a list of these titles. For information on other sound recordings, such as prerecorded text or rehearsal CDs, click on Other Recordings. For information on projected images and video, visit our Images and Video page.
