Factors for consideration

The Theatre Committee works hard to select as varied and exciting a season of productions as possible.

Rights

All plays in copyright (including modern translations of non-English language plays) are scheduled subject to our ability to obtain the performance rights. Please note that, as a London Theatre, we are sometimes denied rights that are available elsewhere. Rights which have previously been available, may sometimes be withdrawn. Conversely, rights which are not available now, may be released.

Currently Carole Coyne is effectively the SLT Rights Officer - she handles all negotiations with the main British amateur rightsholders (Samuel French <ref>Samuel French Limited website</ref>, Josef Weinberger <ref>Josef Weinberger Ltd website</ref> and Nick Hern Books <ref>Plays section of Nick Hern Books website</ref>) and occasionally with agents and playwrights.
